Love Quotes

Speaking from the heart, words and gifts of love.

I have dreamed thee too long
Never seen thee or touched thee
but known thee with all of my heart
Half a prayer, half a song
Thou hast always been with me though
we have been always apart
Joe Darion
Dulcinea, from the musical "Man Of La Mancha"

A Book of Verses underneath the Bough,
A Jug of Wine, a Loaf of Bread - and Thou
Beside me singing in the Wilderness-
Oh, Wilderness were Paradise enow!
Omar Khayyam (1048-1122)
from The Rubaiyat

I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush upon its petal tips;
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips.
John Boyle O'Reilly (1844-1890)

I love your hills and I love your dales,
And I love your flocks a-bleating;
but oh, on the heather to lie together,
With both our hearts a-beating!
John Keats (1795-1821)
Where be you going, you Devon maid?

My best chosen friend, companion, guide,
to walk through life, Linked hand-in-hand,
two equal, loving friends,
true husband and true wife.
Sir Charles Gavan Duffy (1816-1903)

Let me lie,
let me die on thy snow-covered bosom,
I would eat of thy flesh as a delicate fruit,
I am drunk of its smell, and the scent
of thy tresses
Is a flame that devours.
George Moore (1852-1933)

Twas a new feeling -- something more
than we had dared to own before
Which when we hid not;
We saw in each other's eye,
And wished, in every half-breathed sigh,
To speak, but did not.
Thomas Moore (1779-1852)
