Because You Make It So

My love for you increases
with the passing of each day
and blossoms forth in tenderness
to form a sweet bouquet.
Each week adds just a little more
of things to make it strong.
Sincerity and deepest trust
help it to go alone.
The months bring hope and faith to me
and cause my love to sing
a song which mellows more each time
your kisses pluck the strings.
Your smile is fuel to keep it warm;
your words cause it to flame
and sparks fly to the skies above
each time I hear your name.
And that is why, dear love,
my love for you will grow
to fill this life with happiness
because YOU make it so.
