Fairground rides and joyful laughter, <br />toffee apples and chocolate sweet. <br />These are things that pale in comparison, <br />to our love, whene'er we meet. <br /> <br />Golden beaches, palm tree shaded, <br />azure oceans, warm breezes, such bliss. <br />All are wonderful, dreamlike even, <br />but all are bland beside your kiss. <br /> <br />Frozen ponds, icicle draped trees, <br />hot chocolate by the fire. <br />Diamonds in the Winter months, <br />but coal compared to your desire. <br /> <br />Summer days, when swallows soar, <br />and hedgerows ring with song. <br />Lovely days and precious moments, <br />but without you they seem wrong. <br /> <br />You, you see, are such a wonder, <br />with loving heart so true. <br />The world, its wonders all around me, <br />are dull compared to you.<br /><br />Jojoba Mansell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/compared-to-you-4/
