Oh, my beauty of blond flowing hair who entered my life this day
Could you have guessed or ever known the happiness that you bring
Just to glimpse your beautiful face and radiant smile
Is to truly know that love is a living creature and not an inanimate thing
I look upon you with such yearning, desires, wishes, and hope
That would enable all that you love to see you as I see
To see through my eyes an angel of life who truly does exist
Is for them to realize that God created you for them and not for me
To have them disregard all their barriers and hurts and overlook things which mean
little
Would surely enlighten their souls with the love you bring to each and every life
To have them forget that life’s dreary passages will surely exist through each hour
Overshadowed by today’s excitements, challenges, and untimely strife
Unchallenged, I take your heart and comfort it with love, contentment, and sweet joy
But know that to own such a gift is not for me to possess
You belong to those that have come before me through marriage and through birth
For me just to take a part of you is to feel your love and the softness of your caress
I want for you the very best and yet want you for my own
Understanding that to love you is what you want the most
So forlornly I bid you adieu as I travel forth again
Knowing that tonight I’ll raise my glass to you and say a silent toast
For no matter where our paths may go or others may guide our dreams
We’ll both know and understand that love is meant for giving
To have shared our hearts and souls and spoken words of love
Is to know that our destiny is to help others experience the joys of love and living
