Sweet Tones

How good to hear your voice, precious loving tones That quake the heart and race the blood Inspiring thoughts to new majestic lofty heights. Delighting my Muse rejoicing in your presence Composing poems to your charm, wit, and beauty Knowing wealth of love and pleasure you provide Brightening each passing day with your voice. Companion and soulmate traveling our epic journey Sharing both the good and bad times as they come Never doubting, rebuking, questioning always accepting Making my life so bright and joyful as a summer's day Overwhelming me with tides of happiness and delight No longer to fear the ever looming Great Darkness For with you I know that love survives the grave.
