A spring shower was cause to run
Until you twirled me in the rain
The glow of the moon announced the day was done
Until it became a lover's domain

A rainbow was a only a colorful view
Until it’s arch drew hope in my skies
The stars were reserved for a midnight debut
Until I saw them in your soft loving eyes

A poem was just a talented rhyme
Until you wove one just for me
A moment was a blink in time
Until you shared a few with me  

My soul was a dwelling for fears
Until you promised you would stay
My eyes only knew the sadness of tears
Until your tender kiss took them all away

Love was a license for pain
Until you surrounded me in a loving glow
Alone was what I wanted to remain
Until your heart I came to know

You know how I feel about this one, or do I have to tell you again.   I love it.

God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown

Very lovely. Particularly liked this stanza:

   "A poem was just a talented rhyme
   Until you wove one just for me
   A moment was a blink in time
   Until you shared a few with me"

Sentimental thoughts.
