An Ode to You, My Love
To say the gratitude
I have for you
Is infinite…
Would still be an understatementSo let me attempt to paint you a better picture with the colors of my words
The bright yellow I feel for you brings such joy and ease…
The feeling of sunshine and smiles and birds in the trees
And all good things
That warm the heart in the LightThe soft pink envelopes me
Like a sweet hug and soft kiss
You comfort and hold me
I’ll forever cherish thisThe blue I have felt
Runs deep, as the ocean
And though I feel sad
You still come through
You lead with compassion
Through waters unknown
Bringing peace to my heart
Cool and blueThe green that’s inspired in me by your vibrant ways
Feels fresh and expansive abundant and true
“Grow” you tell me
Down my roots go
Reaching
Connecting
Making things growThe crimson I feel for you lies deep in my heart
A longing, or yearning
Felt straight from the start
Hot, excited but slightly unsure
How could this beautiful rosy dream be mine?
The feeling inside feels ancient yet known
My soul calling yours, longing to return home
Safely nested close to yoursAll of these colors…
Beautiful confusion
You help me sort through them with no expectation
Of a favor returnedSo yes “grateful” might be an understatement
For the one who came into my life to help change it into something of beauty, expansion and service
Grace is your way and everyone sees it
An exemplary example of a Man DivineA life of devotion you model so well
I long to one day be able to say I made you proud
Forever in gratitude to You, My Love.Voting is closed
