All the Day Long

The sky is blue not a cloud in sight
A warm afternoon with gentle breeze
Vision turns inward where love can grow
Words flow forth with a desire to write

Moments become minutes and then hours
The mind weaves dreams of eternal love
Blues blend with greens turning to turquoise
Lovers make their bed on wild flowers

The smell of pine brings the mountains close
The heart beats to loves ancient pattern
Waterfalls cascade to crystal lakes
Words of inspiration they compose

Gentle breeze whispers natures love song
Touching deep within two kindred souls
Birds and bees add to a sweet chorus
While she weaves loves dream all the day long

Ah, this is just lovely, Karen. You juxtaposed the environment and the landscape with beautiful visions of love and wonderful dreams. It gives me an idea for a poem combining those things also, but it won't be as lovely as your, because the weather here today is gray to black skies, rain, chilly and morose all the way around. Perfect setting for writing a poem about what has happened to me recently.

How absolutely lovely, dear dreaming Karen! You are the breeze of freshness dancing through your dreams ... all day long.

Enjoyed this much.
