~ Had I Known ~

Meeting you is by far
The most important
Event in my life,
My love for you
Outshines
The nearest star,

Had I known
When we first met
Just how
Compassionate
You are,
I would have composed
Songs to be sung to you,

Had I known
When we first met
The intensity of your love,
I would have
Composed sonatas
To be played for you,

For
Your love is with understanding,
Is ceaseless,
All things bearing,
Never ending,
Always caring,

Love everlasting
Love enduring,
Your love is confident,
And ever
Assuring

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY LOVE
