This poem's about the loss of romance, a love that was magically entranced,

Ode To Love

Published by Family Friend Poems September 2019 with permission of the Author.

Time to laugh and to weep for good reason.
A season for living, to find true love
And a time to dance with angels above...

Tied up with ribbons and sealed with a kiss.

Remember these words whilst we are apart.

I miss you whilst you are out of my sight.
I miss you now that you're out of my life.
