I’ve reached so often through the stars in search of love’s grasp,

When found it doesn’t come as expected with release of a gasp,

A joyful smile came across my face as my heart responded in kind,

True my heart didn’t smile but it did find the love within my mind,

Once I found my angel’s touch I realized how quickly love can grow,

Her touch, her smile, her everything, I desperately wanted to know,

Passion seemed to present her aura that it could sync within mine,

Love’s brilliance can’t be described unless you’ve seen Patti shine,

From but a kiss of ten minutes came a lifetime commitment to her,

If reason came to avoid marriage vows, our love would still prosper,

Perhaps it’s brought by her precious kiss that gave a lifetime imprint,

Vocal vows penetrate mankind’s souls when said as a commitment,

At a point within each day of life, since our first kiss I’ve pondered,

I think of “the kiss” as it’s known, and pray time not be squandered,

Each moment with her is beyond spoken word when said of its worth,

My love is beyond every word of language since spoken word’s birth,

If only she could penetrate my being and our essence’s be joined,

My written rhymes describe that to only her my heart is conjoined,

I am complete, in absence of nothing, if only she could understand,

I just knew my life would be whole when in marriage I gave my hand.

The end,
