He loved her as steel, he loved her as velvet"Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable." ~Bruce Lee

Steel And Velvet
And in
her heart, so closely she held it,
To make
her complete, was his deepest desire,
To take
her inside him, to bring her his fire
She loved
him as snow; she loved him as rain,
To give
him her warmth, to vanquish his pain,
To make
him complete was her longing desire,
To take
him inside her, to bring him her fire
They
loved as with joy, they loved as a dance
So deeply
in love… through the endless romance.
Author: Doug W.I stumbled across this poem because of the title. Pretty awesome I think! So does this kind of 'HOT' Love and romantic friendship really exist? I still want to believe it does...
Have any of you found it yet?
That's an interesting poem to go with your blog! Cool that you found it! In our times we tend to rely so much on our 'feelings' about love, especially if we have those 'romantic' feelings do we feel that the love is real. A willingness to bless the other person until the end of time, is much more my picture of loving someone. It's an action. May the Lord bless you with HIS LOVE -
ReplyDeleteThat is a Perfect description... "a willingness to bless the other person until the end of time." I will remember that! Thank you, Karin!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe not that intense, but that's how i feel about my wife.
ReplyDeleteI sure like to think it does. I think the key is to accept that every day there isn't going to be 'fire and heat' in a long term relationship. Sometimes it really is that 'comfortable slipper' feeling. But if you can find that spark every now and then it reminds you that you and he still have a sizzle! At times my hubby still makes my heart go pitter pat.
ReplyDeleteHappy Week!
