The sweetness of thy words lay not in thine mouth
but in thine mind
The beauty of moving thine body lay not in thine walking
but in thine heart
The utmost pure love thy have shown
lay not in thine caring nor loving
but in thine precious hidden soul
That's why loving thee is not a day's work
but a labour that lasts a life long
and encapsulates life beyond eternity....

mind, heart, soul and hidden beauty and the truth...... i always believe that true beauty and truth itself comes from God............ very nice poem. it goes without saying dear poetess. tony
God gives us His Love endlessly and we pray to God and give Him our praisals. Thank you for reading this. He loves us so much that He gave His Only begotten Son to be crossed on Golgotha.
Indeed, Dr. Tony true beauty and truth itself come from God and this poem is a tribute to my beloved spouse, the Only God is my God and the only spouse is my beloved spouse. My love goes to him and God's unending Love goes to us, His everlasting Love for us, mankind in the world. Please, keep that in mind the difference between God's Love for us and our love for our life partner. As I told you here this poem is addressed to mine spouse. Thank you for your understanding
