Love and Affection

_______________________________

Clothing made of silken thread

Has a texture and a feel

That is pleasing to the touch,

With a sensory appeal .

 

Yet, even though I'm fond of it

As a choice for personal attire;

It could never ever cause in me

strong feelings of desire.

 

Wildflowers in a Alpine meadow,

In hues that mesmerize;

Are a source of great attraction

And are pleasing to my eyes.

 

But even though their beauty,

Is a symbol of Nature's grace,

They could never, ever excite me

As when I see your lovely face.

 

Silk and flowers, music and art;

Are a much desired collection;

But none of them save you, my love

Can give me love and affection.
