This is a mushy Valentine poem I wrote to my beloved a long time ago but I feel the same way now:
I only knew a Valentine
six years ago
when you became mine
grace revealed
in a burning love
we go in passionate waves
where
were you before
when I thought I knew of love?
now
your arms around me
are life-giving and we have created
memories in the cradle of our united life
even
when you are unaware
my bond and gratitude
are ever-present
then
I asked you to stay
and share the journey with me
now
I feel the same
only more

Ah, to have that kind of love. I'm so glad for you.
ReplyDeleteI got your book of poems the other day and I'm reading a little at a time. I like the variety of the poems and verse. I really wish you success.
This is so moving. I too know that feeling of finding someone long after you wanted to find love.
