Love Poem: I Stand Here

I Stand Here

I stand here at the center of the world
embraced by a sweet joy that makes me feel
so good! I'm melting ice cream that's been swirled
with luscious butterscotch. I want to reel
from giddiness. I cannot merely stand.
I need to move. I want to leap and dance.
There is no other feeling quite so grand!
I'm thinking of long kisses and romance
while feeling loopy! It's as if a wave
of happiness has risen from the sea.
It's oceanic, and its willing slave
I want to be as it rolls over me.
Here where I'm standing in the middle of
HIS world, I am engulfed by his warm love.
