Love…
…had has stirred our spirits together and connected us at the heart. For how long is an unnecessary question, for once combined we can never be completely separated.
American author of young adult literature Carolyn Mackler
I love
being
reminded
that existence
itself is
all about
the tangling
of souls.
Love…
…shows clearly in how comfortable I am with you. Never do I wish to be anything but the “me” I truly am. The open acceptance I feel from you strengthens my confidence and belief in myself. It brings out the best of me.
Nineteenth Century American novelist Louisa May Alcott
Love is a flower
that grows in any soil,
works its sweet miracles
undaunted by autumn frost
or winter snow,
blooming fair
and fragrant all the year,
and blessing those who give
and those who receive.
Love…
…is in its highest form when passion simmers down and loving kindness takes the lead. Until lovers become a friends what is shared is fragile like glass and easily broken.
American composer, performer and filmmaker Meredith Monk
That inner voice
has both gentleness
and clarity.
So to get to authenticity,
you really keep going
down to the bone,
to the honesty,
and the inevitability
of something.
Love…
… is receiving beautiful words from the one with a uniquely special place in my heart: I will never abandon you. No matter what path our relationship takes. I believe to my core that you will never be mean to me. You enrich my life and are an extraordinary person that I am privileged to be close to – heart, mind and soul.
Found on-line by an anonymous author
If someone
would ask me
what a beautiful
life means,
I would lean
my head
on your shoulder,
hold you
close to me
and answer
with a smile,
“Like this.”
Love…
remembered… The longer ago the heart opened to a past chapter of affection, the sweeter it is held within. Well I remember the first little teenage fire in my heart. The gentle flame of then lives in my heart alongside my love for you now.
From “The Sea-Lands by Orrick Johns
My first love
was a fair girl
With ways
forever new;
And hair
a sunlight
yellow
And eyes
a morning
blue.
Love…
…fills the soul with hope; the heart with possibility; the spirit with faith; and the mind with optimism. It is the stuff dreams can be made of.
From “Love Is the Stuff that Dreams Are Made of” by Caroline Blosser
Love
is not a sentence
or a paragraph.
It’s more like
a cello…
in a single note
resoundingly sings
all the truths
of this strange existence.
Love…
…is life’s greatest gift. It lightens our load. It enlivens our emotions. It sweetens our days. It lifts us higher. It makes living more than just survival. Love is manna for the soul.
From “Your Song” by Ella Kay
You have filled my heart
with your laughter
and my life with your love.
Its notes are
compassion,
strength,
and patience
Its melody…
your smile.
Love…
…is driving home from the gym just when the first light of a new day begins to show on the horizon as thoughts of you come to mind… and I smile.
From song “Love (Can Make You Happy)” by Jack Sigler Jr.
Wake up in the morning
with the sunshine in your eyes
And the smell of flowers
blooming fills the air.
Your mind is filled
with the thoughts
of a certain someone
that you love;
Your life is filled
with joy when she is there.
Love…
…is made more complete by the common interests we enjoy. Watching a concert, holding hands and moving to the rhythm in beat with each other makes it unclear where I end and you begin.
From “Love Poems…” by Lois Wyse
Someone asked me
To name the time
Our friendship stopped
And love began.
Oh, my darling,
That’s the secret.
Our friendship
Never stopped.
Love…
… lives within every little thing in the treasure box where I store memories of loving you. One box became two and now it takes three to hold all those riches. Parting with any of it would be letting go of the tangible history of our love.
“Keepsakes of Love” by James Browning
Bit’s and pieces
Covered with lines & creases:
Concert ticket stubs
and cards and notes.
Parking passes
and dinner receipts.
Programs from plays
and a vacation motel key.
Used movie tickets
and hand written notes.
These many things & more
are the odds & ends of love;
treasures all.
