Miles may loom between us,
On this dark and brooding night,
But I wrap my love around you
And send you loving Light.

Tho' you are far away,
You dwell within my heart.
I'll keep the home fires burning,
All the while we're apart.

Our bodies may not be touching,
But our souls still intertwine.
I raise a toast to us, my Love,
And sip sweet Eros wine.

Miles may loom between us,
On this dark and brooding night,
But I wrap my love around you,
And send you loving Light.

Love defies the laws of physics... distance can be interminable miles that stretch forever... and simultaneously non-existent between two loving hearts. *S* I like this very much, dear lady. *S*

Ohh this brings back memories. I've been living with my Dave for the past year and a half now.  Before that we had 2 long years of a long distance relationship.  This poem completely fits the way it felt

Linda,
Miles may lie between us,
And still you touch my heart.
A smile you have gifted me,
So I'll keep it as we part.

Just lovely,

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

This is one of the most pure and loving pieces I have seen...

  Thank you for the smile of joy for you.
