You
            belong
              here,
           right on
             the tip
              of my
             tongue.

              Life is
            way too
               short.

               Break
            the rules:
              forgive
              quickly,
          kiss  slowly,
            love like
               crazy,
             be loyal,
              and be
              faithful
           and  never
               regret
            anything
                 that
                made
            you smile.

              Love is
            not proud,
              it's kind,
             it's patent
             and never
                 fails.
                                                                                        Jon York   2019

It's  you
      and  me,
       and no
       matter
  what comes,
      there  is
   nothing we
       cannot
     overcome.
         I am
  here for you
     whenever
      you want
    or need me,
       always.

       And you
        should
      know this
      and only
             by
     weathering
    the greatest
     storms can
             we
  appreciate the
           most
      beautiful
          skies.

cupcake kisses,
the soft
sensation
of your
lips rolling
over mine.

best friend
intentions,

the look you
give me
from
across our
lover's bed.

embraces,

burying us
deep in our
wedding
bliss.

silk
sheets
bending
and sculpturing
our every
move.

morning's
tempest
giving way

to this
afternoon's
summer's
calm.

seventeen
years
our marriage
young.

this perfect
dream,

I have always

had of

you.

A singular flower grows out
the face of a rock.

That little sprout,
It was holding the power that was bout to be unlocked.

Time was the key
To split the rock
Because that little flower grew a tree.
The singular flower
Cleared a path by unleashing it’s power.
