My love

as long as trees do green their leaves in spring
and bluebells carpet woodland where we walk
as long as bird song trills for you and i
and we are wrapped in soft lace pillow talk
gazing through the skylight at the moon
our audience a wealth of spangled stars
my admiration knows no height or depth
it wanders in the blue sky that is ours
for you the holder of my beating heart
protector of my shadow at all times
for me no snow capped mountain is too high
for you the hard face surface i would climb
one glance across a room you meet my eyes
returned is love eternal as the tides

in english we say 'i will love you forever,' but in poetry we say...
this. this is why i read. to feel what another is feeling, to understand and feel like im understood, to appreciate just how beautiful words can be when delicately written.
its tender, full of sparkling imagery, and sincere. amazing work. i hope you can spend an eternity with your beloved like this.

[Chris Shaw]
