The Little Things I Love
A surprise call during the day to say “I Love You”
A small hug when I least expect it.
Opening and closing the car door for me.
Walking hand in hand quietly talking.
Caring about how my day went.
Offering me quiet loving passion.

The Edge of Love
The Edge of Love
The sadness is really hard to bear, struggling on the edge of love.
To really know if it is lost or still there, buried so deep under hurt, guilt and sorrow.
Or is it just a fond remembrance of a once new and passionate love?
The answers, the truth, lay deep inside.
There is no shortcut, no gentle path, it’s an uphill battle all the way.
There will be a time, when you crest the hill, and the answer quietly appears.
You may be talking tall and alone or holding hands with the love of your … Read the rest

I love your caress
the gentle touch of your hand
the warmth of your body next to mine.
I love the time we spend together
in a place that has no name.
No street signs point the way
no one else knows
found only by loving hearts
location unknown.

Friend and Lover
Friend and Lover
Gentle and kind, you’re on my mind.
Sure and strong, don’t mind being wrong.
So alive and aware, you always care.
Open and true, you help when I’m blue.
Friend and lover, you’re like no other.

Love & Kisses
Love & Kisses
Love and kisses
is all you misses
when you’re hard at work
it’s not a perk.
Just water cooler friends
your ear they bends
they talk and laugh
to fill the gap.
You’ll soon be home
so don’t feel alone
for love and kisses
from your own true Misses.

Love Comes From Within
Love Comes from Within
It hurts to not love yourself
it hurts to not like yourself
it hurts to not understand yourself.
The love, the kindness
the understanding
only come from within.
It comes from the heart
the soul, the Spirit
all living within yourself.

I love your caress
the gentle touch of your hand
the warmth of you body next to mine.
I love the time we spend together
in a place that has no name.
There are no crowds or traffic jams
it can be found almost anywhere.
Location unknown
no street signs point the way
but easily found by two people in love.
I cherish the time we spend together.
Time spent sharing, time spent caring,
location found only by loving hearts.

Love Never Dies
Love Never Dies
Love never dies,
it just gets put aside
blurred by years of life.
It lives so quiet and deep in your heart
waiting for time, waiting for caring
waiting to renew passion and joy.
Love needs to be embraced
love needs to shout
love needs to hear whispers of caring.
Love never dies
it’s a patient tenant of heart and soul.

My Love For You
My Love For You
As wind , rain and mist block the rising sun
we know in our hearts it’s always there.
My love for you,
not always visible through the mist of daily work,
disappointments or sorrow,
is always there.
A shoulder to lean on, a hand to hold,
a warm heart that cares.

Quiet Gifts
Quiet Gifts
Quiet gifts touch the spirit and heart.
Absolutely free, not costing a penny
taking only a few moments from the day.
A soft touch to the shoulder
quietly holding hands
a warm hug when least expected.
Quiet gifts of love and appreciation.
Sitting still and listening
walking slowly hand in hand
watching children play in the park.
Quiet gifts of life.
Quiet gifts touch heart and soul
give meaning to life and love.
Honesty, trust and appreciation
are truly quiet gifts of the heart.
