Day 478 - Enough

This love is more than enough,
To fulfill all one could desire,
To live a life of happiness.

Perhaps it is more than I deserve,
I'm just a simple, common man,
What could I have done to earn this?

The Divine saw something special in us,
Put us together to define trust,
And we a giving it all we have.

Day 477 - One Way

You bend my emotions,
In an upward fashion,
Creating a happy flow,
From where there was none.

The twists and turns,
From which I came,
Are now straight lines,
Leading me just one way.

This path I follow,
It's peaceful and calm,
Yet, full of an energy,
Which patiently waits.

When the day comes,
And we're in one place,
I'll be a permanent scar,
Of love you can't escape.

Day 476 - Here and There

I've seen the lights of Las Vegas,
Walked the Grand Canyon rim,
Hiked in the Black Hills,
Sought out celebrities in L.A.,
Climbed the Statue of Liberty,
Rode to the top of the Eifel Tower,
Took a night cruise on the River Seine,
Said a prayer at Westminster Abbey,
Snowshoed the mountains of Washington,
Rafted rivers in Maine, Texas and Tennessee,
Skydived through blue skies in Nashville,
Enjoyed wine and pasta throughout Italy,
Skied the powder filled Rocky Mountains,
Stood beneath the powerful waters of Niagara,
Flew across the world to explore Taiwan,
Watched the sun set over the temples of Angkor Wat,
Walked the streets of Kuala Lumpur,
Road tripped across the Emerald Isle,
But one thing I now know is true,
My life is most joyful with you.

Day 475 - Late Night Love

Tonight I woke at 2 A.M.
Not knowing where I am,
Something was blinking in the dark,
Something pulling hard upon my heart,
I looked around the lonely room,
A screen of white shining like the moon,
There I found an emotion filled girl,
One out trying to save the world,
I reminded her of our bonded love,
And maybe me waking was guidance from above,
I asked her to focus on positive thoughts in her mind,
To help to embed happiness for a lifetime.

Day 472 - Missing Everything

Two towels together on the rack,
Two bodies tangled in the sack.

Long, dark hairs all over the floor,

Cigarette butts outside the front door.

Minty EOS lined lips, 

Random hair ties and potato chips.

Money falling out of all my pockets, 

Chargers sticking out of all sockets. 

Dirty floors running throughout, 

Clothes strewn all about.
Losing cornhole so gracefully,
Riding bikes like kids so joyfully.
Jumping photos on sea and sand,
Always reaching for your hand.

The smell of marsala in the air,

Undergarments with no need to wear.
Tiny shirts which do not belong to a child,
Saving-water showers which sometimes get wild.
Hiking through woods and river beds,
Talking happily about the day we will wed.
A couch which forced us a tight hold,  

Sweaty nights from someone who's cold.

Daily smiles on my morning rise, 

Love sparkling in each other's eyes.
Smoked chicken, sushi and cokes,
Burning fires we never have to stoke.
Failing to buy Zaxby vanilla and rings, 

It seems I am missing everything.

Day 471 - Greener

Oh, Ireland,
The grass is greener on the other side,
And we're both ready for the ride.

Day 470 - Across the Ocean

Today's a sad day,
My baby is flying away.
There goes the plane,
Here comes a heart full of pain.
I know where she is going,
Yet, sadness is flowing.
She's tripping back across the ocean,
Our next meeting not yet in motion.
It's back to patiently waiting,
Distance and time again we're hating.
