Somewhere isn’t as
Important as the
Someone I can
Live anywhere but
I can’t just
Love anyone so
I know that
When I find
My someone then
I’ll know where
My somewhere is
Somewhere isn’t as
Important as the
Someone I can
Live anywhere but
I can’t just
Love anyone so
I know that
When I find
My someone then
I’ll know where
My somewhere is
To answer the
Question of what
Is the difference
Between love and
In love think
About it thusly
Love is a feeling
An expression of
Abundance and happiness
In love is
An action it’s
A reserved sign
On a table
For two it’s
A simple promise
That with you
I choose to
Spend all my
Time far more
Than anyone else
That I love
And like an
Eyelash delicately swept
Away by my
Finger and like
A dew drop
Bouncing from the
Leaf to petal
To ground and
Like the first
Snowflake landing upon
My outstretched tongue
And still like
The last auburn
Maple leaf that
Falls on a
Forest floor my
Kisses find my
Way from face
To foot these
Are the piquitos
Of my desire
For only you
And what if
After all the
Gifts have been
Opened after the
Explosions of laughter
Glee and surprise
There remains the
Last gift the
Last cherished gift
The smallest gift
The gift that
Went unnoticed the
Gift that patiently
Waited for its
Turn to shine
And what if
That gift had
No card to
Whom should it
Go certainly not
To those grabbing
But instead like
The gift itself
To the one
Patiently waiting simply
Because they belong
Together at last
Such is love
My dear boy
This I know
The great relationships
Of your life
Will be adaptable
They will flex
And move like
A River willow
They will give
Shade like a
Prairie oak when
Life’s blazing heat
Weakens you they
Will wither and
Fall like elms
In late autumn
And then with
Time they will
Sprout again like
Garden daffodils bringing
Glee and joy
These relationships last
Forever because they
Know that they’re
Not there for
Just a season
