Passions of the Heart
Passion of the heart my friends
does burn inside us all,
“Where do I find my love in life?”
each must make the call,
it isn’t always found inside
the realm of an illusion
“Love is everyday we live.”
is my simple conclusion.

Sharing a life with one I chose
is a simple matter really,
I walked up to her face to face
when I caught her stealing,
a peek into my shinning eyes
when I cast a glance her way,
she was taken by my baby blues
and could not help but say.

“How gorgeous are your eyes dear sir
and the rest of you as well…,
I can’t help but admit to you
in love with you I’ve fell,
your eyes are such a beautiful blue
and weakened both my knees,
if you’ll kiss me – please dear man
I’m yours for all our days.”

That is how I remember it
she doesn’t really agree,
it may have something to do with
the dating that took place,
dinners, movies and long walks
between the two of us,
matters not I have her now
joined are the both of us.

Broken hearts we both possessed
and healing had been done,
I remember when she did confess
“In your eyes I heard a song.”
Yet in my memory there was a thrill
when I saw her form,
she has the greatest legs in town
of that there was no doubt!

Soon she gave her heart to me
and our passions did explode,
with tender touches of our hands
and kisses wet and slow,
but of all the moments I recall
about our courting days,
I recall her most exciting words
“Your baby blues just make me faint.”

I cannot express my happiness
with her throughout my life,
yes there’s been some times of stress
and of course some little fights,
but when she touched my heart so deep
with her words of secret passions,
I dropped directly to one knee
and kissed her in high fashion.

I could - I swear continue on
and write for her forever,
of the beautiful flowing poems
she has inspired me to endeavor,
but what I am most thankful for
and thank the powers that be,
not love or all the poems that rhyme
I’m thankful that she’s color blind!
