Love Cannot be measured Except In terms of heart It can send one To both heights Undreamed And depths Unbearable But has no girth Or breadth It cannot be Calculated by time Clocks merely watch As years pass In sheer endurance Or an instant Redirects And redefines Entire lives I lack words To express All the ways You fill my life I can only say I live By the grace And goodness Of our love |

Love is like an orchestra when it begins....the piano strikes a note perhaps, and the violins come plick-plick-plicking until they're in tune....and an oboe comes wooting into line, French horn, harp, the timpanist touching, touching, ear so close to the skin, tuning....before long they're all together, altogether....defined, as you so beautifully say it. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

No, love cannot be measured, but you certainly did a love-ly job of "defining" it! You are beautiful both within and without, Suthern Gal! Loving hug, Linda |

suthern, THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOUR WRITING! No words could be more true or poetically offered. It is good to read your writing again. Gotta go, but first a trip to the library... misc |

SweetestSuthernFriend~ 'Clocks merely watch As years pass' I sooooo like that thought~ You poeticize love so beautifully~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

ah...having a 'partner' in life does not necessarily mean you will have love as this...it sounds like something worth keeping |

I love this! It definitely belongs at the top. Well done, indeed! Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
