Precious

Precious moments shared with you
I gather like pearls on a string.
Beautiful each and everyone
more valuable than any diamondring.

I see before me the brightest pearl,
your glittering blue eyes.
And your face that always seem to send out
wave after wave of love and light,
it makes my heart and soul take flight.

It's the feeling you give me whenever your near
it radiates peace and block out all fear.

I don't even know where I would be
without the glory you see in me,
if ever you wonder, if ever you're in doubt
know my love, I'm a reflection of the glory in you that I see.

So don't be modest, don't second guess,
you have what I need and more, not less.
If only you could see yourself like I do
then you would love yourself to.

The pearl imagery is marvellous, Elisabeth,...and gathering moments 'like pearls on a string' is so visual and warm ...and just right in the context.
