Happy Birthday, Honey! ♥

I’m wishing my Husband a wonderful Birthday today
and many more years of happiness with
the kids and I.
Below, is one of my favorites I wrote for him last December~

Cloud 9

Can you believe we’re “you and I?”
I’m still amazed that you’re my guy
How you fell in love with me
and how we came to be
I’ll never know just what I said
what I did to make you trip
I’m just glad I caught you then,
Do you remember when…
We danced all night and closed the doors
You held me tight and I was yours
The music stopped; our hearts kept beat
The tempo followed our graceful feet
You gently swept me off the floor
and I kept going back for more
Your loving whispers melted me
Our kiss good night lifted me
to a place I never thought I’d find
I’m finally where I want to be…
A lovely view
from the divine cloud nine

and honestly, wasn’t sure if that was correct
or if copying it this way is the right way~ 🙂

Always (Sequel to “Will you” 1/31/12)

Distance has made its way
weaving through our paths
Yet I’ve been near everyday
though, with my heart in a cast

Past words have been lethal
leaving souls in broken bits
but I think of you daily
It’s your spell I truly miss

You ask these things of me
with plain uncertainty
  Yet I sense you still have feelings
even as you tread carefully

You have never left my heart
It is there you have remained
I hold this place for you
To your love I am chained

Ask anything, My Darling,
Anything, at all,
I’m yours ‘till eternity
With you and only you,
I will fall

A Valentine’s Day to Remember

May we hold close those in our lives
Who touch our hearts
Our husbands, our wives,
Our girlfriends and boyfriends
Our daughters, our sons
and our very best friends
Our sisters and brothers
Our fathers and mothers
Even the furry companions
Who add joy to our days
To those who have passed
We give God praise
for the love they gave
To anyone unmentioned
in this Valentine greeting
We give thanks for your love
For your presence and hugs
Let the Valentine banner be unfurled
And if we could, we’d give them the world

I will be slowly responding to your wonderful,
supportive comments, and then I’ll get
back into the blogging routine…
I wish you all a loving Valentine’s Day♥
Lauren

In-Between Life

A quiet interlude of two consenting minds
connecting in desired agreement
A gentle kiss becoming delectable
bodies embracing, passion flaring
the baring of equally loving souls
Each giving to fulfillment
breathless whispers
over the moon ending
descending into
anticipation
for the next
lovely
rendezvous

FLIRTING FOREVER

I’m not sure what this would be called,
but my kids encouraged me to post it,
and my daughter, especially, liked it.
It’s a fun one, so I hope you enjoy it~

He: You’re easy on the eyes
She: I have to say likewise
He: Can I have your number?
She: Only if you’ll remember
He: Will you go out with me tomorrow night?
She: It would be a delight
He: The night was amazing
She: You have my heart racing
He: Can I kiss you goodnight?
She: I was hoping you might
He: Can I see you again?
She: I’d like that. When?
He: How about us together?
She: I’m thinking forever

CHANGES

You don’t listen anymore
You don’t offer your heart
You don’t smile
when I walk through the door

We’re together, yet, so far apart

You don’t bring flowers
at the end of the day
You look right through me
when I have words to say

You don’t kiss me
hello or good-bye
My head is spinning with questions
I ask myself, “why?”

Where have you gone
What have I done
What happened to us
I ask you because
I still love you

PERFECT IMPACT

Crazy in love with the man you are,
not who you want to be,
doubting yourself, constantly
I comfort you
you’re the true match for me

I wish you could feel
when you steal a kiss
how dizzy I become
I’m still stunned at the effect
you have over me
My heart flutters
when you take me so blissfully

I offer you my hand,
walk beside me through life,
calm your mind and understand
as sure as the shore meets the tide
Our souls
were
meant
to
Collide

Imperfection

Why must I see
the flaws surrounding me
a laugh line here, a crow’s foot there
the endless pulling
of each gray hair
the muscles that have flipped,
to say the least

either way, they’re not
where they’re supposed to be
Those youthful pages
of our precious photo albums
portray an image
that was once okay
now, the magnified flaws
have definitely found their way
Yet, your soul doesn’t see
what my mirror shows me
You see the blue-green ocean
when you look deeply into my eyes
You feel my long, soft hair
and marvel in its silkiness
My laugh lines joyfully remind you
of our endless happiness
When our hearts beat
as close as can be

all that matters
is our loving connection
Your adoration runs deeper
and through your devoted actions
seeps absolute affection
So blessed am I
to have found complete
Perfection
