Title: The Gift
Writer: Christy Jones

Your love coats me thickly
like the flow of oozing honey
--slow and patient with its sweetness
--consuming every surface

Your love falls lightly on my ear
like the whispering breeze of Spring
--delicate in its procession
--tender in its purpose

Your love has reached out ot me
like a rope tossed into darkness
--rescuing me from a lonely abyss
--guiding me toward your warmth

Your love has become my own
in a gesture of unselfishness
--showering me with life
--teaching me to grow
