Telling Me Simply. Poem by Fay Slimm

Simply lovely is well-expressed, rounded-
Out romantic love, everyday phrases
Of tenderness from you come easy, sound
Like warm honey, are never abrasive
.
They just drip like pure gold into my soul.
Starting with you my life has been taken
From drab, into the state of happy whole-
Hearted delight - - a dream in the making
.
Telling me simply of how much you care
Has taught me responses I never knew.
My heart is bursting with things now to share
With you, verses of love bind me to you.

I tell you now simply, soul-mate and friend
My devotion to you will be unending.
