What happened first didn’t matter…(Poem #78)

I don’t know what I fell in love with first,

Your smile or your laugh,

Your gentleness or your strength,

Your  tenderness or your stamina,

Your adventurous nature or your kindred soul…

I may not remember what I fell in love with first,

but I sure do know it was worth it!


The beauty in you…(poem #19)

You will never be able to see,

what I see in you,

or how important you are to me,

or how much I cherish your presence,

or how much I admire you…

Oh how I wish you could,

because if you could,

you would smile everyday,

and never feel worthless,

or unappreciated,

or unloved,

or forgotten,

or lonely…

Because you would see everything beautiful about you.

how your smile lights up a room,

how your heart shows on your sleeve,

and how you can give everyone something to look forward to,

or how you show people that no matter what life hands you

you can always move forward,

and that each story is beautiful,

but most of all,

you show the world that it is a beautiful thing to be you!
