Analysis of Beautiful Lover
Eileen Goldberg 1950 (Brooklyn)
Your face bathed in sunlight,
your smile, warm and wide.
So comforting a delight
my heart opens wide.
The love that you give me
is perfect and true.
It’s not hard to see how
much I love you.
A kiss soft and gentle,
a touch warm and slow.
Whose memory stays
with me wherever I go.
I never expected devotion
so true.
I’ve never loved anyone
as much as I do you.
