poem twenty-five [adapted]

in my heart
there's only room
for love divine
i've seen orchids
try to bloom
like love divine

golden hair
and an angel face
spring for me
is in his embrace
what a glow
to know that he is mine
how divine

beautiful to look at
are my lover's eyes
bright as stars
when only two
are in the skies

when there's lover
there's melody
while there's lover
there's love for me
and the sun will shine
love divine

poem twenty-four

we say goodbye at the darkened doorway
and i can hear voilins start to play
a melody, sweet
rhapsody, discreet
as the moon lingers on

and everytime that you leave
you tug at my sleeve
and wish there were more hours in a day

as i lovingly stare
snowflakes collect on your hair
and i wish all the more that you'd stay

but this love of mine
can weather the storm
since i know i've you
to keep me warm
