The Search
Paul Weaver 1964 (Virginia)
As her smile warms your heart,
So soft and smooth like fine silk her skin.
Always wanting to be together,never apart.
Wanting to please her heart and win.
Her eyes as blue as the sky above.
Wanting to keep her free from sin.
Graceful she is as a morning-dove.
Her presence soothing as a country breeze.
Good hearted as filling a blind man's tin.
Keeping her warm from winters freeze.
Loving her to my fullest until last rest.
When together our love lights first crest.
This is loving your mate,no matter the wait.
You know on that first kiss,
Life with your love begins.
Then you know you can grow old,
Cause together we are soul mates.
Caring for one another making love strong.
The love we share tightens our bond.
