A poem challenge answered. I took a line from Jon Hanover and wrote this poem about the simple beauty of a woman


All The Things You Are by M.A.Meddings

All The Things You Are

By M.A.Meddings

Your love is out beyond me
Outside my wildest dreams
It was only ever in special realm
Or even so it seems

But the love within my deepest care
Will mitigate my sadness
All the little things you do
Enhances all my gladness

It is not just for your beauty
that my heart aches and so
it is all the little things you do
and how they make me glow

That sudden way you turn your head
And treat me with a smile
The enchanting way your eyes just shed
What lonely tears beguile.

Then how when I am feeling low
You lift my very soul
By the softly parting of your lips
And softly breathing so

Whilst late in the evening light
Of winters shortened days
You touch with gentle finger tips
My face uplifted gaze

And so I look in wonderment
At the radiant beauty there
An elfin face mischievous laugh
Framed in darkened hair

For that is why I love you
A better love by far
I love you for the things you do
And all the things you are

Does she have any friends ? Wow, this experiment is coming back with some seriously great poems. This is probably the most complex and deepest one yet. Great poem.
