Love Bears All Things

Love bears all things

Every morning
In my silent heart
I hear the bird singing
Small clear notes
of love's endearment
to a soul awaking
to the dawning
 of a new day.

At mid day
I see the blooming
of a summer flower
by the side
of stone
I see the leaves
waving
from my windowpanes
and hear the roaring
of the highway trucks.
I see my beloved's beauty
in the petal's smile.
I see my honey's palms
in the dancing leaves.
I hear the roaring
of our strong devotion
in the sound that passed by.

In quiet rest
after and evening walk
I come home
and sit in wonder
it's been another day
of love's forebearance
in the deep recesses
of my waiting heart
where all my life
faith is rooted
hope is nortured
joy is kept!

My soul longs
my heart seeks
my mind reflects
the fulfillment of a dream
the culmination of a journey
the completion of a story
in love's safekeeping
of memories sweet and fond
the blended colors
of our canvass of love
resonates the classic art
of eternal splendor
timeless and ageless
enduring echoes
of a love that bears
whatever is worth it
and makes it beautiful
in our promise land
of love's hello forever!

The Freshness of Married Love

There is freshness
When the heart stirs
Bells of joys
Ripples of laughter
Echoes of gladness
And the mind begins
To envision new 
and better ways
of creating love's
masterpiece
out of love's
treasure box
of God given
gifts and talents
for the joy of the beloved!
In my quiet ponderings
In my silent musings
In my tranquil dreamings
I'm awakened
to this newness
I'm born anew
to this freshness
I'm re created
to this holiness
Oh what blessedness
to only desire
that which is divine
to only receive
that which is God given
to only keep
that which is sacred
God was there
the unseen Hand
that tied the wedding knot
the loving Eyes
that witnessed the union
the listening Ears
that heard our "I do's"
And indeed, t'was done
etched in life's parchments
signed in heaven's portals
our happy wedding day!
