The Girl With the Purple Dress

Love is the Breath of Life

I thought I could write

but my pen had run out of ink

I thought I could see

but realised I was blind

I thought I coud hear soft sweet music

but only silence was around

I thought I knew love and all it's ways

but then I saw you

Heard you sing

and thats when I knew, I knew nothing at all

For no words ever spoken

could explain you

or describe you

No song ever sung

could ever tell the beauty of you

And no other eye

could see

what I behold each time  I gaze upon you

This makes me think of an old story… I don't mean a story I've read a while ago, but an aged one, if that makes sense. It's beautiful… I can almost see her, and I can certainly imagine someone sitting at a table with the lights down low writing this with a feather pen.

It's so wonderful to meet someone who redefines one's very notion of love. You captured this so skillfully in this poem.

Love surely IS the breath of life and the notes to the music that flow through our souls and the comforting cloak that warms our existence.
This is a song of pure adoration, devotion, loyalty, complete reverence...the stunning magic that is all encompassing love... I love it!

Hmm the words of a lover said from the heart..shows that love still can conqure whatever is put in its way.

A perfect description of one of the best feelings a person can have---when a special person opens your eyes and exposes your full attention and your heart to their beautiful being! Fantastic poem!
