Far Beyond Love
Early morning
is only the beginning
for an entire day
of being together,
allowing us to know
each other
on a much more personal basis.
To know what you love,
your thoughts and dreams
is important to me,
so I listen as you talk
of all those things
you appreciate in life.
You ask me what I think,
as I gaze into your eyes
and hang on your every word,
and I tell you
just how remarkable you are.
I play with my rings
and you see,
a smile comes to your face,
because you know
that's what I do
when I think of you.
We are so far beyond
the lust
that can cloud
a perfect relationship
that comes only from
a deep love and respect,
and it's as if our minds
make love,
stimulating each other
with the intellect
we receive from each other.
As we lie in each other's arms
eating popcorn and watching a movie,
the warmth of our bodies
is comfortable
and we know we are safe
from the bitterness
that other relationships cause
when lust is taken away.
Adding your comment:
your border and background here are also just beautiful 
be well and be blessed

I learned this lesson well, and I am so much richer for it. Hugs, Patricia
