| This is a poem I have received through e-mail, actually the first poem really submitted to be featured. Love is a favorite subject of mine, and this piece of poetry is a fine tribute to this beauty feeling; the explanation which comes with it makes the whole story the more genuine. | 
| Love | 
| Hearts entwined in each other, embrace, Souls united forever more. Full of joy and grace, Like a bird on wing, will soar. Rising high as on a wave,
 Time to laugh and shout,
 Innocent as it seems,
 To cherish such a heart,
 |

Wrote it for her inside a Valentines card and then for her birthday, I spent 100 hours doing it freehand in cross stich for her birthday later the same year. The year after, we were married September 23rd." (The Briggsville) |
