Love



What is love you might ask
It's the feeling of your breath
Upon my neck across my back
Every carress feels just like that

The smile you give as each of you pass
Pass through the halls
Passing across the street
The smile you give when you first meet

The ever blossoming trust that comes
Trust that is unbroken, never gone astray
Trust that is with you every day

Being with the one who brings out the best
The best in everything to make you a success

What is love you might ask
It's all the above
Sweet breaths and smiles
Sugar coating for miles

Success of the storms you have weathered through
Beginning each blessed day anew
Touching your souls with each act you do
Acts of love that come from both of you......

About this poem
