Love With a Capital L

Love is like a warm wooly hat On a cold and blustery day A raincoat shielding from a driving rain A cup of cafe au lait The morning sun spreading its joy The warmth of a child's touch A sleepy hello from the love of your life Tender words that mean so much Can you think of anything sweeter Than the call of a whippoorwill A protective lioness feeding her cubs A meadow at midnight so still Mere words at times fail to express What's hidden deep in our hearts Only with time honoured expressions Are we able to describe it in part There are so many words and phrases But none so meaningful as this A gentle touch, a warm tender smile A long and passionate kiss Love is like a warm wooly hat On a cold and blustery day A raincoat shielding us from a driving rain A cup of cafe au lait © Jack Ellison 2012
