"La Chanson d'Orphée" has got to be one of the greatest love songs to have ever written. This song is known to us as "A Day in the Life of a Fool" in English. The English lyrics tell a totally different story from the French lyrics. In this featured video clip, my English translation is from the French lyrics--beautiful, tender, oh such a romantic song!

I've always loved this song and for such a great love song, I have to feature a great love poem. So here I am... sharing with the world one of the most beautiful poems I have ever read, "Two Hearts That Share One Soul," written by my best friend & soulmate, JFB, who is also my better half because of many reasons. He is my "gentle giant" who has never given up on me, no matter what I've done in love and in life. The poem was written for me, of course! :)

TWO HEARTS THAT SHARE ONE SOUL

A vision of you appeared in my mind
An angel to renew my faith
Your beauty and kindness is so hard to find
I knew we would find each other

Never giving up hope for my true love
Knowing that my life had purpose
Praying to God the universe above
For my one and only soulmate

From worlds apart that we once came
So vastly different in culture
Yet now I feel that we are the same
Both searching for our meaning of life

Though we are still bound to our past
From the lives we have created
Now we can let them fly at last
And focus on "The One"

You said that your eyes smiled
I told you that mine did the same
And within a very short while
I realized my search had ended

I look in your eyes and my heart melts
And see a love so true
Something so rare very few ever felt
Two hearts that share one soul...
