GIFTS of love, mushy hearts think of, to express their deep devotion,
Their affection, admiration, and desire
Their enamored ways, through the nights and days; their concern and sweet emotion;
Their attraction, excitation, and purple fire;
QUALITY TIME, like a living rhyme, helps them know how much they matter,
Just how much we really care, and treasure them,
Through the time we spend, making memories bend, around the joy we share together,
Through the treasured, precious moments with her or him;
WORDS OF AFFIRMATION, lift us up, and keep us going,
Bringing joy and inspiration to our days,
Bringing energy, and synergy, to our hope and thirst for knowing,
Bringing worthiness and power to wisened ways;
ACTS OF SERVICE lighten heavy loads, and help us manage things more freely,
They help us see how much our sweetheart really cares,
They help us get things done, so we can have more fun, while feeling special, prized, and pampered,
They show that our beloved is with us there;
PHYSICAL TOUCH, we need so much, to fill our hearts with sparks and glimmers,
To bring us comfort, sensuality, and bliss,
To make us healthier, and happier, shining brightly through the shimmers,
To seal the magic of endearment with a kiss.
*These five capitalized phrases; Gifts, Quality Time, Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch are The Five Love Languages as outlined in the 1995 book bearing the same name.
