10 YEARS ALREADY?

For the 120th time, roses on the 9th.

You'd think she'd be getting tired of them by now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Beloved Wife TNT turned 40 today.

Still hotter than any two 20-year-olds.

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

...How did I ever end up with you? I think fate must have gambled with destiny and I won. I didn't have to question my love when we first met, my heart already knew. I think that I must have lived an entire lifetime in the moments that I was waiting for you. I do not know what the future holds for us, but I trust you to take me where you want it to go. Wherever you lead, I'll follow. I don't regret one thing that has happened in my past. Every road I went down was one I had to take to get me to you...

[hat tip to blogson _Jon of We Swear for this one]

Cold Feet

Her feet are always so cold when she got into bed.
We play games using body parts to warm them up.
But some parts of her body are always hot.
Not just in bed.

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

To the best of my knowledge, I don't believe I've told you lately about the thrill I feel when our lips meet. Chills run down my spine, electricity fills the air, and I am paralyzed, for just an instant, while my heart catches up to the emotional overload my brain feels. Then comes the warmth, and the rush of passion fills the air while I see clouds explode into broadening, deafening sunlight. I then melt, deep into the arms of my love, my friend, my companion, my everything. You are my perfect angel. I love you so deeply...

(CAUTION: Romantics beware - comments may contain naughtiness)

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

Everything I do and everything I see

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

The daylight faded into darkness and still he sat, waiting patiently for her to wake. He studied the line of her body as she lay sleeping, the curve of her hip and shoulder, the soft rounding of her back. She was such a tiny thing, just a little bit of flesh and bone beneath the coverings, the smallest spark of life. He marveled at the texture of her skin, at the coloring, the absence of flaws. She might have been molded by some great artist whose reflection and skill had created a once-and-only masterpiece...

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

Emptiness is filled with richness and reward
Promises are kept as into forever we voyage
What was once storm-tossed now is serene
Love shared awakens new beginnings

Passion and tenderness envelops us
We feel the warmth of souls united
Forever doesn't seem long enough

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

Dreams are wishes... wants... desires
From the deepest corners of your heart.
But how do we fulfill our needs?
Where's the best place to start?
Is there an age that we must be?
Must a lesson have been learned?
Can just anyone fulfill their dreams?
Or must our dreams be earned?
If I could have my heart's desire,
It could easily come true.
To make mine a world of happiness,
All I'll ever want is you.
My dream is but a simple one,
Yet sometimes hard to acquire.
Just someone to give me sweet, sweet love
And fill my soul with fire.
But dreams can also show themselves,
And take you by surprise.
Consume your world with happiness,
Promising no goodbyes.
It suddenly appears
My dreams have come to life.
I'm living in my dream world
With you for all my life.

(CAUTION: Romantics beware - comments may contain naughtiness)

And that is all I see.

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

I could stay awake, just to hear you breathing

Every moment I spend with you is a moment I treasure...

The Angel That Stands By Me

Dreams of love, so beautiful,
Fairies dancing by the sea...
The moon shining in the heavens,
And an angel standing by me!

And when the morning sun breaks,
Butterflies flutter by...
Bees that kiss the blossoms,
Cottony clouds in the sky!

Oh, what a lovely scenario,
Lovelier, it could not be...
And all the more perfect,
With the angel that stands by me!

For you were always by my side,
For more I could never ask...
And long ago, Heaven sent you to me,
And in soft sunshine, I always bask!

For never could I ask for more,
Than the glories I always see...
All these wonderful gifts are mine,
With the angel that stands by me!

I've grown to you as a leaf on a plant.
You provide my structure and sustinance, I provide you the energy to grow and thrive.
Much as the leaf is constantly renewed each spring, you readily provide me with a renewal of life and purpose with your ever-flowing love.
And as the rings within a tree show the years of growth and strength, the love I see when I look into your eyes shows years of togetherness and bonding.
Both require one to look inside to see the depth of history.
Both require more than just a quick glance to fully appreciate.
May the depth of your loving gaze grow deeper with each year that we renew our love.

I love that you get cold when it's seventy degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich.

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

The power of a glance has been so much abused in love stories, that it has come to be disbelieved in. Few people dare now say that two beings have fallen in love because they have looked at each other. Yet it is in this way that love begins, and in this way only. Nothing is more real than these great shocks which two souls give each other in exchanging this spark.

I love you
Because the Earth turns
Round the sun
Because the North wind
Blows North sometimes
Because the Pope is Catholic
And most Rabbis Jewish
Because winters flow into springs
And the air clears after a storm
Because only my love for you
Despite the charms of gravity
Keeps me from falling off this Earth
Into another dimension

I love you
Because it is the natural order of things

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

I cannot exist without you
I am forgetful of everything but seeing you again
My life seems to stop there
I see no further.
You have absorbed me.
I have a sensation at the present moment as though I were dissolving
I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for religion
I have shuddered at it
I shudder no more
I could be martyred for my religion
Love is my religion
I could die for that
I could die for you
My creed is love, and you are its only tenet
You have ravished me away by a power I cannot resist.

(CAUTION: Romantics beware - comments may contain naughtiness)

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

I swore to myself
It wouldn’t happen again
I vowed to myself
That this was the end.
The end of this longing,
This yearning so strong.
I said I was over you,
But oh, I was wrong.
Now here it is again,
Quite a while later.
And my love for you
Is now even greater.
I spend all my time
Thinking of you,
I’m in love with you again
And there’s nothing I can do.

NOTE: I first started dating the woman who would one day become my Beloved Wife shortly after I joined the Navy in 1986. In the 12 years that followed, we broke up & got back together at least half a dozen times. Our love continually oscillated between ember and inferno. Eventually, however, we realized how much we meant to each other, and after one particularly romantic evening in 1998, we caught fire in a way that would shame the sun. We were married less than a year later, and have been blazing ever since.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

I spent last night dreaming of your eyes,
But your hair kept getting in the way.
Your lips dropped in to tell me how you’d been,
But when I tried to kiss them,
My pillow told me I’d missed them.
Your voice dropped by and sang a lullaby,
And it was then I knew just what to do.
I’d fall asleep and then,
I’d dream of you again.

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

A Valentine is just a paper heart
Two curving lines connected, colored red.
And objects of great beauty, skill or art
Will not express the things that might be said.
And fancy rhyming words could never start
To quote the feelings blooming in my head.
And yet on special holidays like this,
I find that I resort to these and such.
But every glance and gaze, caress and kiss
Will surely show I love you very much.
With ecstasy beyond analysis,
Our lips and hearts and minds and spirits touch.
Because of love, my heart was first created,
And through your love, it's been regenerated.

(CAUTION: Romantics beware - comments may contain naughtiness)

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

Love is sweet.
Love is true.

I live only to love you.
Love is what I give to you.

Reading the words of love - that you write to me -
puts a smile not just upon my lips, which yern to kiss you sweetly,
nor, just upon my heart, which loves you truly,
but they light upon my very soul - glowing, like I've never known before.

I am a sailor, you're my first mate
We signed on together, we coupled our fate
Hauled up the anchor, determined not to fail
For the heart's treasure, together we set sail
With no maps to guide us, we steered our own course
Rode out the storms when the winds were gale force
Sat out the doldrums in patience and hope
Working together, we learned how to cope.

Have you ever met a woman
That inspires you to love
Until your senses all feel with her?

And you know that your heart
Has at last found its home
Your life begins with her
And without her it surely comes to an end...

TODAY'S LOVE NOTE

(Introduction)

Speak Softly Love by Andy Williams

"Speak softly love and hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever know

*Wine coloured days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one

Speak softly love so no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live unitil we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love, so softly love"

[Stolen from blogson Andrew of Custos Honor]
