Collected Poetry of Jonathan Robert Lightwood-Wayland

by J.R. Morningwood

Hellooo! I live in an alternate universe. I'm a fictional character. In my world, the real Jonathan Wayland (that's me) never died and I go by J.R. :-) My wife, Seraphina has a forum called The Circle's Clave (sorry, I promised her a shout out) so anyway, go there for info. Cuz all my poetry will be about the people and the stuff that happens in our world. Please R&R thanks! ;-)

AN: In case it isn't obvious, this one is for Seraphina ;-)

The Greatest Way

So many ways to say I love you.

So often those words alone do the trick.

Then, there are also days like today,

When people will say it with:

A movie date night,

Roses n' Chocolate,

Bubble Bath, a nice greeting card.

Sometimes a gesture or compliment will do.

Some say it with a smile, a hug, maybe a kiss.

But the way I like to say it best, is:

As old as creation,

As heated as the sun,

As essential as breathing,

As addictive as any drug,

And almost as beautiful as you are.

I say I love you by slipping slowly inside,

Looking into your eyes, seeing the pleasure there,

And knowing as I hold you that I will never let you go.

Happy Valentine's Day Beautiful!
