Like a lily among the thorns, <br />So are you among the rest. <br />Your love is my joy of life <br />Which by God’s grace is the best. <br /> <br />When I sleep my heart is awake <br />It is the vice of love within. <br />By day or night I seek your love <br />My life mate, my partner, my friend. <br /> <br />You ravish my heart with just one look <br />When I’m less than you desire. <br />Your eyes speak without words <br />As displeasure kindles your fire. <br /> <br />Your beautiful and extraordinary <br />Like a fragrant flower from the wild. <br />I dream of the day you softly whisper <br />“My love, I carry your child.” <br /> <br />The vines put forth their tender grapes <br />The fig tree her sweet fruit of life. <br />My love for you is everlasting <br />As you nourish my need for a wife. <br /> <br />God gave man a woman to adore <br />And a woman a man to respect. <br />God gave us children we love till death <br />To provide for, cherish and protect. <br /> <br />Until it’s dawn and the shadows flee <br />I will hold you close and ponder <br />Our life together past and present <br />And may our future be blessed by wonder. <br /> <br />By Soul Poet <br />Tom Zart <br />Most Published Poet <br />On The Web <br /> <br />“TOM ZART’S 330 P0EMS” <br /> <br /> <br />You can hear all of Tom Zart’s 330 poems <br />of love, war, faith and more 24-7 on web radio at <br /> <br />http: //internetvoicesradio.com/Arch-TomZart.htm <br /> <br />Tom Zart ARCHIVES: <br /> <br />Global <br />Special <br />Operations <br />101 <br /> <br />http: //www.globalspecialoperations.com/tomzart2.html<br /><br />Tom Zart<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/soul-poet-tom-zart-s-like-a-lily-among-the-thorns/
