This is my acceptance poem for this week’s Poets Rally. Thank you so much, Jingle. Words can never be enough to express how grateful we all are to you for bringing us all together. Please, let’s all visit Jingle’s blog. Please follow this link: http://jingleyanqiu.wordpress.com/2010/03/12/thursday-poets-rally-week-9-the-perfect-poet-award
I also wish to nominate John, the Traveling Poet, for next week’s Perfect Poet Award. I believe that John makes such a good poet because he also goes from one place to another. Not only does he create very good poems, he also makes very expressive pictures.
This now is my poem for this week:
For Jeffrey
I love you
So much that I can see
The whole world through your eyes
Everytime you look at me.
I love you
So much that my heart beats
The same time as yours does
Even when we’re not near.
I love you
So much that I could always smell
Your skin and your scent in my head
Things that I know so well.
I love you
So much that even an eternity
Is never enough for me to love you
With every moment in between.
I love you,
And there is no other way
I would want to live my life
But with you, every single day.
I love you,
And there is absolutely no one
Who could take your place because
For me, there’ll always be just one.
I love you,
And I awaken at your lightest touch.
You bring me back to the world.
You give me everything and so much.
I love you,
But it’s more than just that.
You are my life and my reason,
The one person that I was created for.
