For My Dearest Love Poem by Sheri Green

My dearest love, how you have lifted me
From that barren earth I used to know
You gathered those scattered dreams
I cast from myself so long ago

I had borne my sorrows so heavily
That I wast no longer allowed to fly
But now I spread wide my wings
And soar across the starry night sky

What was once a humble heart
Now stands so proud and free
There is no pain I wouldst not bear
If I could but shine with the love of thee

Thy soul is the rarest that I have ever known
It burns bright with your tender love and grace
My love, my most cherished of angels
Forever I have longed for thy loving embrace

Now I dost ask the Heavens so eagerly
To hear my most sincere and heartfelt plea
And grant us one day and eternity
For one life is not enough to love thee
