No Ordinary Love Story

It's No Ordinary Love

Words give no measure

It’s something like the smell of rain on a spring day

You know it’s full of possibilities and all things can grow

These days are rare and the moments should be savored

It’s something like a benevolent hug that reaches your soul

You treasure it and try not to spoil it because it may never come again

But that’s not quite it…

Words cannot justify

It’s something like seeing a new land for the first time

Allowing its history to tell its legends and tales

You want to know more and you never want to leave

It’s something like a gentle touch on the small of your back

You are affirmed with tenderness and comfort and reassurance

But that’s not quite it…

Words cannot describe

It’s something like the first taste of a sweet mango

Your lips cannot believe it while your palate is intoxicated by the nectar

Could this possibly be the sweetest thing

It’s something like my grandmother’s rose garden

It’s nurtured and cared for and allowed to become all it is

With each pat and caress of the soil, there is the implantation of love and respect

But that’s not quite it...

It’s no ordinary love

Because it is always becoming

And just when you think it has done all it can do

It grows beyond our own set boundaries

It touches others and allows them to see that which is extraordinary

It restores hope for those who are mesmerized by its brilliancy

You want to pour a taste of it into a bottle and give it to the broken-hearted and despaired

It’s no ordinary love

It is as bold as both you and me

It is as extravagant as both you and me

It is as intense as both you and me

It is as courageous as both you and me

It is as strong as both you and me

It is as eternal as the God as You and the God as me

Nothing less would be sufficient for our Souls

It’s no ordinary love

Because we’re no ordinary people.
