~ROSE~Sestina~

Morning dew kisses Summer's Rose so sweet As the golden sun greets a brand new day And your love bestowed upon me is such a joy 'Tis a love which fills my heart in return, I'll give twice as much to you Knowing well, I'd be lost without your love You're everything to me and more, dear love So gentle kind and sweet For sun shines naught, but for you and you brighten for me the dullest day with your sweet smile of joy your love is my life's flow, unto my heart Forever my love, you shall have my heart 'tis only you , for which I live and love Sure as summer's warm rose brings joy I'll softly caress you, with kisses my sweet and when raindrops fall, I'll warm your day Sharing my dear love with only you My essense my very soul belongs to just you As my spirit fades into yours I feel true joy we're soulmates, of the past ,future and today We're bonded souls of a true love And like Summer's rose petals fold tightly sweet Darling, you and I are of one heart Your love is passion, burning in my heart my only desire is loving you and like the reddest rose blooms sweet Bringing into my heart a special joy you are my one true love Each and Everyday Rain or shine cold or warm the day my dear, you're forever in my heart you must know it's you who holds my love 'Til the dayI die My Love 'tis only you My spirit sings loud with joy Because I have your love so sweet Happy the thought of another day with you Doth make my heart beat for joy Like Summer's warmest rose, our love is sweet

Though this is a dedicated poem of love, it has an intensity which separates from comparison with any normal gushing verses of affection..
The classical way in which this love is portrayed and compared is pseudo-Shakespearean in nature and the form and technique add to this effect.
My prejudice for this kind of romantic positivity was suspended whilst reading these lines because of the skillful way that they were conveyed. They have an ancient, charm-like fantasy about them which lends the piece a depth which most poems of its kidney cannot hope to and seldom do attain.

I am truly in awe of this poem... there is a magical warmth of this piece from the radiating love that shines from it... I was nearly breathless by the time I got done reading it.
