Depths Of Love

Like the wind beneath my wings

You lift my spirit so high

You can't even imagine

How that makes me feel

I feel like I can go to the depths

Of the sea

Climb the height of the sky,

You make me feel 

Like my life is precious

Like a gem

That you have polished and sealed,

A thrill I've never felt before

And it feels so good

Thankful for you

I am very sure.

I'm sorry I couldn't get past the first verse. Unfortunatelly it is a very famous song! I don't think the song was your inspiration, but that verse is just too unique for you not to have thought about it. I do use songs as source of inspiration myself! Two of my pieces were influenced by songs: Fog - Moon over Bourbon Street by Sting. Free - I've got to be free by Queen. Yet unles I told you you would not pick it up! I guess wat I am saying is that sometimes, you find that someone else has written exactly what you want to say elsewhere. Take it in, sleep on it, and then let the uses transform it into something totally yours. Poems are too short. First impressions make them or break them.

I too use songs as a source of inspiration...a lot of my poems are because of listening to songs and I try to use my own words and thoughts...good write...

Thanks Valerie - didn't even realize it until it was pointed out.

[Eddie Phillips]

This is a lovely poem of appreciation. The person that it is penned for should be proud and honored by your words.

I like the positive feel in your words. Love should make us content and reach-out to express joy and happiness. Thank you for the excellent poetry.

Yes, I know that feeling very well... :) :)

[Tarry Franck]

I'm glad you do Blue :)

[Claire Lorraine]

I am drawn in and yet put off by the first line because it repeats a line of a song...while it is good sometimes it feels cliche.
However, I feel that you did use it rightly after reading a few times. :)

My favorite line is:

"You make me feel
Like my life is precious"

Love does give us that validation of our own worth. It is perhaps why we so desperately need and want love - to have the validation that we are worth loving.

I think the last two lines could be elaborated a bit more...they don't give me the satisfied feel I like to have at the end of a love poem.

Overall it is a lovely poem :)
