Tranquility embraces –
the sunβs exit advances.
Listening to whispers
among the trees,
our time here is a gift,
and when we depart,
the gift will belong
to someone else.

Candy hearts that say Be Mine
Red roses bestowing forever
Fancy dinners for two in love
A special night to remember
But what about the lonely β
The broken hearts and souls?
What about the hopeless
Where life has taken its toll?
On this day where hearts abound
Give love where you find sorrow
Let compassion be your guide
to fashion a better tomorrow

Wherever you may be emotionally on this Valentine’s Day,
know you are loved and virtual hugs are sent your way.

Those bedroom eyes…
It’s in the gaze
before the leaning
a little heavy breathing
mesmerizing to the core
sweet, slow motion
an electric pull
tingles stirring
toes curling
body heat rising
in warm embrace
hands roaming
head spinning
global tilting
Magically unforgettable
Blissfully memorable
Sinfully intoxicating
Simply delicious…
when lips unite!

An oldie for some February fun π₯°
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
πππ

The colors mesmerize
They dance across your face
Flames conduct a jazz recital
My heartbeat meets their pace
Your eyes gaze at me
With a hunger that feeds
You touch with your thoughts
Fulfilling all needs
Wrap me in your warmth
With soul, body, and mind
Touch my lips so gently
To taste the sweet, sweet wine
Lauren Scott (c) An old poem revised π
To my Husband,
Our love perseveres. It has survived topsy-turvy financial times. It has thrived through ribbons and bows and lots of Lego. It has boomed through high fevers and elevated lab tests, riding on a million prayers. It has traveled endless highways and zigzagging back-country roads with respect on its wing. Our marriage has grown like a pine tree, the roots deepening over more than three decades as we add another ring around its trunk. You have lit the fire in my heart. You have awakened my soul. You have pushed me to reach higher. Loving you is like a taste of nirvana that I have savored, never taking for granted. You see the better version of me that I cannot see. I could turn myself inside out, exposing my every imperfection and you would still love me. I do believe in luck and I am lucky to have found you and this love that binds us. My world is around you. Sharing each sunrise, sunset, and new dream on the horizon in this fascinating thing called life has been the answer to my dandelion wish. You are my beginning and end.
I love you forever…
We hope to celebrate 32 more anniversaries. π
Stay safe, enjoy your special occasions,
and thank you for stopping by!
