WITH YOU IN OUR MEADOW
11 October 2011

Tiny wild flowers,
bobbing their colours in the breeze,
and their scent
mingling with the sweetness
of the soft, soft grass around us,
and you caressing the inside of my soul
which you know
better than your own,
you, comfortable and warm,
your bliss glowing sunlight smiles
that melt my sighs,
and me, leaning back in your arms,
safe and beyond happy,
our heart singing
with the summer birds.
Would that Time could
stand still with us forever,
in this, our sacred summer place!

Sounds like a beautiful meadow to skip through, or perhaps an enormous flower bed to lay down in.  

Dreamy poem,lady Owl~

While your meadow is a summer meadow, my own meadow is getting ready to dress for winter (silent, yet peaceful and nonetheless full of light). It's nice to remember the summer sensations through your blissful words, dear Owl.

O yes, if only it could stand with us
just a bit longer.
Your sweet poem brings its longevity to the surface.
