I\u2019ve reached so often through the stars in search of love\u2019s grasp, <\/span><\/p>\n

When found it doesn\u2019t come as expected with release of a gasp, <\/span><\/p>\n

A joyful smile came across my face as my heart responded in kind, <\/span><\/p>\n

True my heart didn\u2019t smile but it did find the love within my mind,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once I found my angel’s touch I realized how quickly love can grow,<\/span><\/p>\n

Her touch, her smile, her everything, I desperately wanted to know,<\/span><\/p>\n

Passion seemed to present her aura that it could sync within mine, <\/span><\/p>\n

Love\u2019s brilliance can\u2019t be described unless you\u2019ve seen Patti shine,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

From but a kiss of ten minutes came a lifetime commitment to her, <\/span><\/p>\n

If reason came to avoid marriage vows, our love would still prosper, <\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps it\u2019s brought by her precious kiss that gave a lifetime imprint, <\/span><\/p>\n

Vocal vows penetrate mankind\u2019s souls when said as a commitment,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At a point within each day of life, since our first kiss I\u2019ve pondered, <\/span><\/p>\n

I think of \u201cthe kiss\u201d as it\u2019s known, and pray time not be squandered, <\/span><\/p>\n

Each moment with her is beyond spoken word when said of its worth, <\/span><\/p>\n

My love is beyond every word of language since spoken word\u2019s birth,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If only she could penetrate my being and our essence\u2019s be joined, <\/span><\/p>\n

My written rhymes describe that to only her my heart is conjoined, <\/span><\/p>\n

I am complete, in absence of nothing, if only she could understand,<\/span><\/p>\n

I just knew my life would be whole when in marriage I gave my hand.<\/span><\/p>\n

The end, <\/span><\/p>\n
