The Passion of Love
Passions ignite …
Love is like an enduring flame –
burning bright.
When love is true
and passions ignite.
Like the glowing sun in the morning –
which rises bold red
and warms the world –
with the passion of love.
Like a candle flame.
flickering but always enduring –
which shines like a beacon,
long into the night.
Love is like a river –
that flows never-ending,
over white water rapids –
toward cascading waterfalls.
Rises and falls,
like flames –
when a fire runs wild
and engulfs lovers in its heat.
Like a fine-tuned instrument –
that sounds like a lovely refrain,
with each golden note,
something beautiful remains.
Love is like a song,
with words that tug at the heart
and make you remember –
each precious loving moment.
Like the sky –
stretching as far and wide,
filled with clouds like white pillows –
where lovers can lay their heads while dreaming.
Love is for romancing –
when the sky turns to black velvet.
As lovers sit to gaze at the stars –
while the moon beams from above.
It is for lovers,
who promise each other forever.
For kisses never dying
and passions that never cool.
Love endures the seasons,
makes distances not seem so far,
never tarnishes
and never grows old.
