Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person.
Having neither to weigh thoughts
Nor measure words, but pouring them
All right out-just as they are-
Chaff and grain together-
Certain that a faithful hand will
Take and sift them,
Keeping what is worth keeping,
And with the breath of kindness
Blow the rest away.
Unknown.
Love's Light
In the cool of the evening
they walked
together
hand in hand
for she was his woman
and he
her loving man
under street lamp
glowing
to dispel the dark
of the night
two lives
a drifting together
in a world
filled with cold and damp
their hearts
beating as if one
their love
radiating a warmth
and a love
that gave to others
it's own
so special glow
breaking
the dark of
the world's night
bless them
and all who through
heartfelt love
bring to us love's light.

Two Together
Two stood together
holding hands
changed to holding
each other
Magnetism of eyes
mesmerized
immersed in emotion
bringing together
Two sets of lips, tender
ever sweet
melting together
as it is meant to be
Hearts increase the tempo
as realization
that this first kiss
certainly won't be the last
As the sun soon sets
a new day
has begun for two
who are so lovingly together.
