Love’s Enchantment
By Emileen Church


I could say I love you a thousand times

But it still wouldn’t express how I feel inside



I could thank God for you

With every single breath

But it would barely scratch the surface

Barely pierce the depth



I could study every language ever spoken by man

Search out every word created

Since time began

But I don’t think I’d find a word

Strong enough to describe

How I feel when I stare into your beautiful eyes



I could tell you how you’ve captivated me

Body and soul

And when you hold me in your arms

I never want you to let go

How I’m entranced by your smile

And the warmth of your kiss

The smell of your skin

The taste of your soft lips



I could tell you how you’ve spun my world

Upside down

And given me a happiness

I never thought could be found

But even then

You would only have a small glimmer of the truth

Of how I was blessed beyond measure

When God led me to you
