How do I love thee...

I wish I had the ability

to create poetry that would

through generations of lovers

be used to express

"the depth and breadth and height"

of romantic love for another.

~~ How Do I Love Thee (Sonnet 43), Elizabeth Barrett Browning ~~

 

I wish I possessed the genius

to pen and compose a great song

to sing how "I'm born again"

with his amazing love

~~ With You I'm Born Again, Carol Connors, David Shire

Recorded by Billy Preston & Syreeta Wright ~~

I wish that my words

of love, passion, admiration and respect

for my most beloved

could inspire God Himself

to use them as instruction and example

of true, deep, romantic love

for all of time to come.

~~ Song of Songs (Solomon), The Bible ~~

 

But then, there are no words after all

that would adequately convey

the wonder that is my Lanny Love

and how deeply we are one together.

 

But I wish there were...

 

I have found the one my soul loves

                                        ~~ Song of Songs 3:4 ~~
