Telling You Now

Have I told you about it yet
you are the honey in my tea
the warmth in the morning
wrapping all around me.
Have I said to you
you bring simple pleasure
a relief of strife and pain
good, by any measure.
That you add to me reasons
to freely face life's ire
and even stoke the embers
of passion's building fire.
Have I said to you
I am glad to have you near
Simplistic words, I know
but I do hold you dear.
I just had to tell you
in case I missed somehow.
So, if you hadn't heard it before
I am telling you right now.

enjoyed reading all these today. I sometimes forget to make my rounds so I apologize in advance for my being absent from reading your works!
