A SPECIAL POEM FOR YOU
These things that you do please me no end,
The way you sometimes call my name,
The finest fragrance that you apply,
Our dancing together,
Conversations that stimulate my intellect,
When You talk about something recent and interesting,
Conversations that enter and stimulate my soul,
Whenever you look at something intently, immersed in thoughts,
Your pleasant and playful personality,
Your sharing something with me,
Your being a lot different from my type,
Your making call to me in spare time at work,
Feeding me while I am busy working,
Making tea and serving with a smile,
Your love for food,
The graceful language of love,
You know what I like and paying attention to it,
Giving me space, being compassionate, and understanding me.
Paying respect on and often,
Simply seeing me intently, that I melt
Doing Home repairs,
Telling me to relax
Sharing your past travails,
Calling me to do this and that and when I don't listen saying suno,
The crrrrrrrr of the ATM machine when you accompany me,
The smiling eyes,
The ability to stay calm under duress and pressure,
The calm cute smile which remains in your eyes,
Remembering all the details of or past conversations,
The eyes lighting up with mischief or something funny,
Listening to Instrumental music together,
The Sound of waves before seeing the beach,
Planning a vacation and the things that go with it,
Working calmly on the computer for tomorrow’s PowerPoint presentation,
Whispering my name often,
The lingering gaze that stands for a few extra seconds
Making me laugh at the smart humour
The joy of mail saying leave approved
Your noticing me being busy and helping out
The most pleasant way of looking at me,
The softest, sweetest, and shortest smile
Preparing coffee as you see me tired,
Discussing music of the past and humming it,
Standing in a cold breeze and smiling,
Always dressing elegantly,
All intentional and unintentional smiles,
Ordering my favourite food,
Your voice and fragrance,
When you give me your credit card,
Tickling the feet or back,
Having meaningful brief silences between conversations,
And soaking together in rain.?
