He sits, reflecting
while springtime's first tender blush
stirs winter worn souls...
time that yesteryear's failed dreams
be released unto the sea.

I read this yesterday
and went off to ponder it...

only to come back
to admire it yet again.

~Ahh thanks again everyone!~

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart..
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul.
