My Hearts Fire
His body like a tree it towers,
Arms like branches do devour,
I'm safe all nestled close inside,
By his body I doth hide,
His body like a flame in fire,
Its warm,
Its hot,
I do desire,
His touch, his warmth, his fire,
All his body I desire,
His eyes so brown like timber wood,
They mesmerize and truly should,
For I'm his wife, his life, his flower,
From this man I will not cower,
By his side I'll always be,
This man that loves me, mine is he,
To this man I'm truly bound,
By love, by marriage, by a ring so round,
His love for me is by God's desire,
This man of mine ignites my fire.
Arms like branches do devour,
I'm safe all nestled close inside,
By his body I doth hide,
His body like a flame in fire,

I do desire,
His touch, his warmth, his fire,
All his body I desire,
His eyes so brown like timber wood,
They mesmerize and truly should,
For I'm his wife, his life, his flower,
From this man I will not cower,
By his side I'll always be,
This man that loves me, mine is he,
To this man I'm truly bound,
By love, by marriage, by a ring so round,
His love for me is by God's desire,
This man of mine ignites my fire.

Thank you so much. Most of my writing intertwines nature with people. That's how I make connections.

I was not going to because I would have blushed and been embarrassed. I know it doesn't make sense but im very introverted and adhd so i overthink a lot. My brother writes poems as well so he gladly read it to him for me and he loved it!

Dear G,
Seems you have a natural gift for poetry. This is quite the jump starter. I struggle with rhyming because at the end of mine it always feels so mother goose-y, which is great for children…adults I’m not so sure 😊.
Your rhyming schemata is mature and rather like the bards of yesteryear. In addition, it has such a prayer-like quality as such a lovely homage to marriage in general and your husband in specific. Beautiful piece. H🌷

Re. My Hearts Fire
A write of love in praise of your husband. See shades of Song of Solomon in the descriptions from the selection of enjoyed lines:
His body like a tree it towers,
Arms like branches do devour,
I'm safe all nestled close inside,
By his body I doth hide,
His body like a flame in fire,
Its warm,
Its hot,
I do desire,
His touch, his warmth, his fire,
All his body I desire,
His eyes so brown like timber wood,
They mesmerize and truly should,...

Hello Sapphirewolf. I decided to go back to your very 1st poem written here. I usually do this with people that have numerous poems and have been with DUP for a while. Your poem is enthralling, full of emotion and well written.

This paragraph was really well written:
"His eyes so brown like timber wood,
They mesmerize and truly should,
For I'm his wife, his life, his flower,
From this man I will not cower,
By his side I'll always be,
This man that loves me, mine is he."
It flows beautifully and has a some great passages.

Yes, I love that part too. He is the landscape that I put to canvas with words. Whenever I write a poem about love it's almost always about him.
