Quiet Times

I think I like the quiet times
when we two share our thoughts
without words and the lives we live
are shared like singing rhymes.

I like your words to me
that without explanation
show your thoughts and
offer them to me.

I wish I had your gift of words
to paint a mood with verbal
brush. To give a quiet theme
of thought to simple moods.

I love you with my every
spoken phrase though it
says not what I would
