Beloved, I do Love You

by Lawrence J. Henriques, the Snowman - Not entered

Love, I lose all measure of time,
Memories of you on my mind.     
Seeing the image of your face,
The remembrance of your embrace,
I just hope you really know,
How deeply I do love you so.

A soul unique in all creation,
fills my heart with sweet elation,
Your gentle heart I shall treasure,
Gracious kindess beyond measure.
I just hope you really do know,
How deeply I do love you so.

The softness of your touch so tender,
Enveloping me in splendor,
Wishing that feeling to never end,
Honored am I above all men,
I just hope you really do know,
How deeply I do love you so.

The angels and saints must envy,
Though here, it's heaven you carry,
Like me, from you they can not part.
Such a joy to know your warm heart,
I just hope you really do know,
How deeply I do love you so.

If you part I hope it to be,
By one far more greater than me,
As you ascend into heaven,
To wear a diamond tiarra,
I just hope you really do know,
How deeply I will miss you so.

Reason for writing:

    Jean Louise of Sidney, British Columbia, Canada, inspires me 
each and every day... so very much.  It would be grand if I
were only able to do justice with my words, to the wonderful
love which we share...
