A Gift

Laughing eyes soften to caress a longing of the soul – by poet His eyes whisper to me Of warmth, joy, compassion Feelings that are everlasting His hope breathe gentleness through me With a caress of sincerity and serenity That soars across the feelings within His music speaks more than lyrics to me Embracing me with insight and a dance That reflects all the joy I can have His wonder fills me with pleasure Ecstasy that enlightens and enriches Frees my mind from desolation His warmth holds me within its grasp Soothing and comforting all my anxieties With gladness that leaves me so enraptured His faith reassures me of complete grace Laughter that assures me of my place In a heaven who is there, awaiting. His song leaves me aching for more Rhythm and soul, shining life forevermore Through sunshine, rain and even the storms His love breaks through my control Promising me elation I can’t imagine or know Without the pure love that he always shows His heart brings me through the sorrow As I cling to his light, his laughter, his love I hang on his every word as I learn… Love like this needs no words It only needs the gift of time and trust To give to the heir a heart that is strong and good A heart that gives from it’s core Love that lives on to be a light to all who know Love like this is a wonder from God’s best Sing, dance, continue to breath in The beauty of a love that lives freely To give from the center – kindness so rich It is filled with pure bliss Love like this is strong, faithful and complete Only God can give it and it is such sweet relief To know that it comes alive when its given without merit With a heart that isn’t selfish or greedy A heart that gives freely Love that lives To be given A gift
