A Lifetime of Love

Thoughts gathered from musty corners
(Of my forgotten heart, and vigilant mind)
Of an aeon ago, tell me how much
How very much I did not know
How, I did not live…

How very much, I
Yearned, to do, just that.

And so I come a full circle.
To this. We. Us.

To that moment when love
Joined life, and we began.
To each waking moment
Or slumberous dream…
Stalking closed lids
And warmly held closenesses.

To smiles, thrown in abandon;
To enjoyment in a child’s shout of laughter;
To holding hands and quick hugs;
And leaning my head, into your shoulder;
Of a pat on the back,
A sneaking admiration, open-mouthed
But well-hidden!

Of how I stand back, and let you …
Do all you ever wanted to;
Knowing it is Love, of yourself,
And therefore another, that lets
You be the best, you can.

For you. For me. For us.
For Love.

Valentine’s Day, for me, is everyday, but special too, for it completes, and starts another year of celebrating Love, each day, each moment. Wishes to all of you too 🙂
