HHow Do I Love You?

P.L. Hallinan

 

How do I love you?
Let me count the ways.
I love you on your very best and very worst of days.

I love to see you laughing and dancing in the rain;
And even when you lose your shoes, I love you just the same.

I love to hear you singing.
I love to see you smile.
I love the way you take each day in your own unhurried style.

I'm happy when you're happy,
and I'm sorry when you're sad.
And even though it may not show, I love you when you're bad.

How do I love you? Well, not let me see...
I love the way you act so brave when you fall and hurt your knee.

I love to watch you sleeping, tucked away in dreams,
I love to hear you whisper all your giant plans and schemes.

I love the way you wear your pants with the front part in the back.
And the way you walk around sometimes with your head inside a sack.

I love to see you deep in though.
I love to watch you play.
And though I'm sure you'll never know it,
I love you more each day.

How do I love you? It's impossible to say.
Fot if I had a million days & time enough for all the praise,
I couldn't tell you all the ways......I LOVE YOU!
