TASTE OF HEAVEN

TASTE OF HEAVEN

I had a taste of heaven in your arms,

It took away the emptiness in my heart,

I knew what it is like to feel again,

Even if it was but a fleeting moment,

For the best things in life never seem to last,

I hold it dear, I hold it true,

A memory to replay over when I am blue,

A vision I will never tire of,

A feeling I will never forget,

And a hope to hold onto  that will see me through,

To a life and my memory of you,

Something I will hold close like a treasure,

Hidden from view as I would hope you would too....

This is very well written, you can see how much you care about the person you are referring to. And I can relate to the poem. I loved it.

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
