You Have an Angel's Face, a Loving Heart

February 7, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is romantic love.

Today’s poem is a love poem to a loved one who lights the heart.

I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

You have an angel's face, a loving heart,

A peaceful, sunlit smile that lasts forever.

You are the whole, of which I am a part,

Not fully me unless we are together.

I know there is a world beyond our love

In which such thoughts are merely poetry.

But thinking of you now, I can't remove

The glow that shines on you from inside me.

How happy, happy life is when some tender

Feeling like a candle lights one's eyes.

For all my life you'll be my heart's true center,

Striding like a sun across my skies.
