The Gifts That Come From The Heart

Memories so sweet they don't depart, Because each stays sublime, It's the gifts that come from the heart That stand the test of time... Like that first kiss upon the cheek, Before lips melt with love, Such heartfelt gifts must be unique, What else could prove enough? Some think gold rings or gems will do, Or flowers for a while, While others hold the point of view, Whatever makes them smile... Yet heartfelt gifts mean so much more, For these were meant to please... They have enchantments to allure, Somehow they grant you peace... To think that someone truly cares, Loves tenderly and free, Holds nothing back and nothing spares And shares incredibly... God-blessed are those who play it smart, That simply says it all... With the gifts that come from the heart, For love is beautiful... Denis Martindale, copyright, January 2011.
