A THOUSAND THINGS...

a thousand words... a thousand smiles... a thousand embraces...

 

Your heart captured me
so fully as I read
your letters
for weeks
and months.
So beautiful
so loving
so kind
You encouraged me
inspired me
lifted me
in every way
made me feel
so full
so complete.
A thousand words...

Your smile is sunshine
your touch so electric
flowing through me
like a river
washing over me
like a soft rain.
You give of yourself
to make others happy
And in all you do
I smile
I laugh
I sigh
just knowing you
A thousand smiles...

A gentle heart
for your family
your friends
your neighbors
that shows me
a love so caring
Every moment
you spend with me
shows me such love
such beauty
such depth
in your mind
your heart
your soul
A thousand embraces...

Everything about you
excites me
awakens me
challenges me
I thought I'd known love
but never like this
never what I sense
in your life
for me
So powerful
so deep
so overwhelming
A thousand things
I love about you
and I could find
a thousand more
every day
for the rest of our lives...

What a beautiful poem, and, so beautifully formatted too!

Your posts are always wonderful but, there's something special in this one. It expresses so many feelings, such deep feelings - 'I thought I'd known love / but never like this / never what I sense / in your life / for me' ..

.. and, long may that feeling continue.

Thank you for sharing such a magical piece of writing.

Well Craig what can I say.....you have topped them all with this beautiful poem.
Must be a very lucky woman. I loved the font you used made it more personal like
you hand wrote it. It flowed beautifully and the words were perfect.
I wish you and you love the best in life.

This is such a loving write. It truly shows the truth in your appreciation for her and the woman that she is not only to you but that she is in the world.
Wonderfully penned!

*Sobbing* How beautifully rich these words are, they have a depth beyond normal because it is a love beyond normal. Two very lucky people very much in love...that is what shines brightly off this page Craig. I am so happy for you and your loved one. This is what it is all about...this devotion and complete open love.
BLESSED!!
Helen.

What a divine expression of true, deep love! This poem is like magic, flowing through every inch of my mind when I read it. Usually my mood is not highly affected by writing/movies/stories, but this piece of writing is unusually powerful. I felt like I was in another world when I read this.
Truly beautiful.

"I smile
I laugh
I sigh
just knowing you
A thousand smiles..."

and...

"A thousand things
I love about you
and I could find
a thousand more
every day
for the rest of our lives..."
