Thank you my dear lover
for your smile so bright.
Just to hold you, to kiss your lips
was for me an absolute delight.
I saw that love light in your eyes
as I touched your cheek, your hair.
Then I knew with no reservation
how much more love we could share.
From tender loving to heated passion
our time together spanned the range.
Now I believe with all my heart
that it can continue, to never change.
The moments we shared together
were resplendent with love anew.
But each morning I woke with you
in my arms were indeed a dream come true.
I will never forget that cherished time
to again wake you with a special kiss.
To see you smile and hear your words
once again to share another day of bliss.
You have departed now but sweet memories remain
locked forever in my heart and mind.
Until next time my love, when once again
we shall meet and our love will flare again in kind.
Tears of joy repeatedly fill my eyes
as I gaze into space and.....
feel your love!
