HER III



With her hand she touches him softly,
And with her eyes she holds aloft
Every worry and fear that stirs
Deep within him.
And she gives him peace.

Within her laughter lies a celebration,
And from her smile shines forth,
Unhindered, elation in the world
And all its beauty.
And she gives him happiness.

With her arms she holds him, tenderly.
Her breath is soft and warm and she
Sends him, off into a dream,
Where he simply lies and listens.
And she gives him life.

Yet even with words unerring, she fails,
And cannot express the feeling that prevails
When their hearts beat in rhythm, in unison,
Together as one.
And she gives him love.
