If love were like water
I'd build you a fountain,
And if love were like stone
I'd bring you a mountain.
...
When I wake up every morning
I always watch you for a while
Then I kiss you very lightly,
Watch you lips turn to a smile.
...
The moment I saw you
I could barely contain
All the butterflies jumping
It's hard to explain.
...
You ask how much I love you
And then you ask once more
And so my love I'll tell you now
As I did once before.
...
Did I say you are amazing?
Did I mention how I knew?
See how angels watch in wonder
Each time I think of you.
...
Tell me softly, my sweet love,
Of how I won your heart.
Whisper now the gentle tale
Of how our love did start.
...
The sea is painted in her eyes
And sand is sprinkled on her skin
Her waves of hair so soft to touch
Her mouth a cave they wisp within.
...
I'm trying to write a love song
But the words won't come out right
My heart is breaking painfully
Yet I'm lost for words tonight.
...
Let me go back to
The days I once knew
When the weight of my worries
Was how to court you,
...
You have such looks
Eternal grace
The prettiest smile
In any face.
...
When you are standing by my grave
Don't ask the children to behave,
Let them run free and shout out loud,
The living joy of which I'm proud.
...
I stand, I wait,
By the windswept shore
My eyes are closed
Like the days before.
...
Sometimes I feel a little anxious
I wonder if the days with you will last.
You are the kind, enduring heart,
Banish all my fears, don't part,
...
When I was young I had a dream
A vision of perfection seen
A miracle of female grace
Heaven sent, an angel's face.
...
Thank you for the days you talked a while, and
Thank you for the days you made me smile.
Thank you for the days you believed in me,
When I was blind you helped me see.
...
I was busy smelling roses
In the garden of delight
When the wind picked up a moment
And my eyes picked out your flight.
...
Do the oceans rise and fall each day?
Do the skies fill all above?
For if these be not true, my dear,
Then so be not my love.
...
Before that day I saw you
I never looked with true love's eyes,
But angels are revealing
And shine through all disguise.
...
You kissed me on the beach one day
And told me I must understand,
Then smiled and watched the children play,
They built tall castles in the sand.
...
I cannot find a single flower,
That looks as fine or smells as sweet,
As you, my one and only love,
Each time we kiss and touch and meet.
...
.....If Love Were Like Water (Best Love Poems)
If love were like water
I'd build you a fountain,
And if love were like stone
I'd bring you a mountain.
If love were like air
I'd set whirlwinds free,
But as these are not love
I'll just give you me.
(1995)
