Love brings me shield and sword, a curious blend,
A haven of comfort, a fierce, loyal friend.
The shield, a warm bulwark, from worries that creep,
Your arms wrapped around me, a solace to keep.

The sword, a defender, from shadows that loom,
A strength I find in you, dispelling the gloom.
For love isn't weakness, though gentle it seems,
But a courage that roars, in passionate dreams.

Together we stand, against life's cruel tide,
Your shield by my side, my sword at your side.
Love's armor protects us, a fortress so strong,
Where tenderness thrives, and battles belong.

In hushed tones, beneath the moon's soft gleam,
We whispered the canons, love's whispered theme.
No laws etched in stone, but a vow from the heart,
A promise unspoken, a brand new start.

Respect, a foundation, where trust can reside,
Honesty's pillar, where secrets can hide.
Laughter, the music, that chases away strife,
Kindness, is the compass, guiding our life.

Patience, a blanket, for when storms may blow,
Forgiveness, is the balm, for when spirits run low.
Freedom to blossom, to soar, and to fly,
Yet tethered by love, beneath a shared sky.

These canons we whispered, not etched or confined,
A love self-defined, a beautiful mind.
For love's truest language, in silence is heard,
We whispered the canons, each loving word.

Love walked out in the clearing, bathed in morning's gleam,
No harsh words were spoken, just a silent, fading dream.
A path once well-trodden, now overgrown with weeds,
Memories linger, like wildflowers, where passion once feeds.

Did the sunrise too quickly, or did the chill settle in?
Did whispers turn distant, a love growing thin?
Perhaps a shared silence spoke volumes untold,
A story unfinished, left out in the cold.

The clearing stands empty, a canvas so bare,
Aching with absence, a love beyond repair.
But nature persists, with the strength to renew,
Love may walk onward, but new blooms wait for you.
Then, I spotted a redtail deer

Love is the wind outside the soul, a restless refrain,
A yearning for something, beyond sun and rain.
It whispers of freedom, of wild, open skies,
Of chasing horizons, with love as your prize.

But winds can be gentle, a soft, calming sigh,
Nurturing embers, where dreams learn to fly.
It carries the fragrance, of faraway lands,
Of adventures unfolding, in love's gentle hands.

Though sometimes it howls, with a fury so deep,
Leaving hearts shaken, where emotions can't sleep.
Yet love is the wind, ever-changing and strong,
In its whispers and roars, where we truly belong.

Love is the light from the soul, a gentle, warm glow,
It chases away shadows, wherever we go.
Not a flickering candle, but a fire's embrace,
Guiding us onward, through life's winding maze.

Kindness its fuel, compassion its flame,
It melts icy barriers and whispers a name.
Empathy's touch, a language so bright,
Connecting two spirits, bathed in love's light.

This inner luminescence forever will shine,
A beacon of hope, a divine love.
For love is the light, from the soul's deepest core,
Guiding us ever onward, to what lies in store.
Love is the light from the soul. hallelujah...hallelujah, amen

Light dwells in the cracks, where our armor gives way,
A vulnerability shared.
Imperfections gleaming, not flaws to despise,
But facets that sparkle, beneath tear-filled eyes.

In the brokenness offered, a connection we weave,
A tapestry woven, where hearts can believe.
For within the cracks, empathy finds its hold,
A solace unspoken, a story untold.

Shadows may linger, in corners unseen,
But light finds a passage, a radiant sheen.
The cracks in our souls, where true beauty resides,
Letting love's gentle light, become our guides.

Love is deeper than a rose, though petals may gleam,
A fleeting display, a fading sweet dream.
Love's roots reach far stronger, in fertile soul's ground,
Where trust intertwines, a bond ever-bound.

Storms may rage fierce, and petals may fall,
But love's sturdy branches will weather it all.
Through sunshine and shadow, its essence remains,
A fire that burns steady, defying life's strains.

For love is a tree, with wisdom and grace,
Offering shelter, a comforting space.
Where hearts find their solace, and spirits take flight,
Love's depth is a mystery, a beautiful light.
