Why I love my Elaine

Her hands are so fine and elegant,her skin is so soft;her face is as prettyas the most beautiful, blooming rose;her eyes are stunningly blue,the clear, radiant deep blueof the Mediterranean seaunder the bright, vivid July sun.She's refined, distinguished,she is quite simplya really beautiful woman. She's extremely bright,she's dynamic,she's an achiever.
Yet her soul is tender as silk
gentle as an Autumn breezeHer soul is fullof kindness and caringof support and tenderness.Her gorgeous inner world
is like a marvelous love poem.Its full of romanticism
full of magic dreams
its full of wonderful thoughtsfull of the most gentle sensitivity
the most enchanting feelings.
 That's my Elaine.She offers me loveshe offers me careshe holds my hand firmlywhen the going gets tough.She' given me  so much.She's givena completely new meaningto my life. I know she will always stand by meas I will always stand by my Elaine,my most precious red rose. We will always stand togetherno matter what difficultiesfate brings us,no matter how hard the times.We're just too precious for each other

Recently there have been

Recently there have been some excellent love poems on this site. I am not the biggest fan of this type of poetry but some members here are really starting to change my mind - this poem again really grabbed me. You have expressed your feelings so eloquently. These lines really stood out for me:- she’s an achiever. Yet her soul is tender as silk gentle as an Autumn breeze You not only express the obvious - her outer beauty but more importantly the beauty of the (for want of a better word) the true essence of this lady you so clearly adore and her inner qualities. I love this - it is written with respect, adoration and real understanding. Awesome Kaz It's impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside.
