font-size: 14pt;\">I have soared like an eagle from but a touch of your hand on mine,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">A touch so pleasant and smooth it relates to a silken gown so fine,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">As I soared high above it all I look below to see you look up at me,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">It&#8217;s a sensation of sweet elation that has cut the ropes to set me free,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">From you flows magic as you have worked magic on a man like me,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">The minute I knew that I&#8217;d marry you I became better than I should be,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">For over fifty five years I&#8217;ve attained things beyond my meager means,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">You are my dream angel, the one I have always wanted in my dreams,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">In this land of magic and visions I see two young lovers as they walk,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Perhaps it&#8217;s just a vision but I&#8217;d swear I heard a man and woman talk,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">It sounds as if they are in love back in a timeline forty-five years past,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">So near I must be to heaven as I hear trumpets blare coming fast,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">I wonder aloud about this flight I&#8217;ve taken courtesy of beautiful you,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">How can this be?\u00a0 Surely it must be some wormhole I flew through,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Each dimension in time is there with but a thought I can see it all,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">So many different images of you fill the air until I yell stop or stall,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">How I knew to yell such a thing is beyond my comprehension right now,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">I have been hanging on for so long but you always save me somehow,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">I am but tarnished tin with rust that has begun to eat away my structure,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Endurance is my creed as I know well the need to endure for our future,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Ever so deeply I long for your touch once more as I feel a need to soar,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Often I&#8217;ve risen too late to reach for your body as you walk out the door,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Without the heavenly touch of your flesh I am no more to walk in the brush,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Let me soar on Eagle&#8217;s wings, desperately I need your touch, please rush,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Precious love is safely in a chest at heaven&#8217;s door with guardians there,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Love so special it is guarded by muscular archangels with long gold hair,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Precious love is any love for to love is a gift unto itself to receiver and giver,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Because of our intense love just a light touch can produce in me a shiver,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">From the clouds I hear a sweet melody of violins, chimes, and harps in unison,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">A whisper comes from nowhere and I&#8217;m found in your arms to dance as one,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">In but a moment I am found holding you in a tight embrace of lover&#8217;s dance,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">I remember so many years ago when I prayed you&#8217;d see me and take a chance,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">As always you have sought me out to find me as it was your whisper I heard,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">This time my angel as we dance I will whisper the most treasured of word,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Let us dance in tight embrace under an umbrella of twinkling heavenly view,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice; font-size: 14pt;\">Even today I feel nervous in my delivery of the special words, &#8220;I love you&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Alice;
