I love you

Ella Wheeler Wilcox, 1850 ~ 1919

I love your eyes when the lovelight lies lit with a passionate fire

The Gemstone Line
How does it sound? Why does it work?
The poem
I love your lips when they’re wet with wine And red with a wild desire; I love your eyes when the lovelight lies Lit with a passionate fire. I love your arms when the warm white flesh Touches mine in a fond embrace; I love your hair when the strands enmesh Your kisses against my face.

Give the gift of love!
