In Simple English

I will try to say this,
the best way I know how
In simple English best I can,
right here and right now
You’re a very special person,
who means the world to me
No other could ever take your place,
or make me feel so free
You’re the wind that carries
the birds above
To their precious nest
that’s full of giving love
You’re the drop of rain that falls
on a sun scorched face
The irresistible smile
that can’t be replaced
You’re the baby’s step
that takes every mothers breathe away
These precious love thoughts
I carry with me every day
In simple English
I’m trying my best to say
I have and always will
love you my child, in Oh, so many ways

    A great sense of rhythm until the short line that jars "the birds above ". It needs an extra word like flying/hovering/sailing/gliding/singing. I am sure you can think of more.

      Thanks! Healthy critisisim is more than welcome, it serves to create a more inviting poem. Thanks for the rythym noted in these words of love. Nancy
