WHY? by GERTRUDE FRENCH

First Line: TO BASK IN YOUR NEARNESS IS A WEE BIT OF HEAVEN
Last Line: FILLS THAT PLACE IN THE DEPTHS OF MY HEART.
Subject(s): LOVE;

To bask in your nearness is a wee bit of heaven;
The moments you give me are inspiring leaven;
Your masterful walk
And the way that you talk
Thrills that space in my life that's apart.
The story your eyes tell is manna divine;
The smile that you feed me is sunshine sublime;
The ethereal bliss
Of your amorous kiss
Fills that place in the depths of my heart.
