MELLOW
How oft do
I think of you
Your presence
ingrained
Emblazed
in my heart
The thought
of you
Warms my
very being
Brings on
an inner glow
As though
you had
Covered me
with
A Mantle
of Love
I feel your
warmth
Your soft
tenderness
Goodness
within abides
If wishes
were granted
I would like
to be
Close to
you at your side
Embracing
you gently
Through your
eyes
Giving you a first kiss
Then perhaps
many more
As the night
wears on
Under a canopy
of stars
Yet of their
untold numbers
There is
but one star for me
My truest love
That star
is you
Forever you
My Love.
