I'll Not Live My Life In Regret

I can't live my life regretting that love didn't grow
For the gifts it gave me made my spirit really flow
Like the hands of time pass and we move ever on
Love came calling although she didn't stay long
Her song filled my heart and shimmered in my eyes
And I shall ever remember her as a beauteous prize
To know her beauty as her light poured into me
Is to be blessed truly and I have been constantly

None of us know our futures it isn't for us to know
But as surely as the waters in a river must ever flow
Loves beauty will warm my soul as she returns to me
Her lips will call my name and I'll know my destiny
I'll frolic in the dance as love sings out her song
And be content to stay with her my whole life long
For if love calls us we can follow her or we stay
But if we ignore loves touch in our hearts we pay

Loves' gift is there and we can recieve it or pass by
But it is only with real love within we truly fly
We all have wings we just forget that they are there
Sometimes the pain gets so bad it's too much to bear
But if we ask love to lift us up and to help us cope
We can feel her wings unfolding filling us with hope
To touch love is to set our souls and our spirits free
And I for one wish to constantly see loves beauty

Alright, Lady - out with it - you seem awful blue right now.  Did you have to evict Balladeer because he would change his undies?  I knew it!  I trie to tell you he was a devil.  Didn't I?  hmmm?

This poem shows a lot of effort on your part.    I like it.

*sigh* dear one, the way you have your heart so filled with love's beauty tells us all that no matter how someone tries to hurt you they will be the loser for you are the one with a heart of pure gold that would have shown them how to touch the very stars in the heavens. Dream, dear one, and he will come to you with truth and love as his gift to you. Much love and hugs to you from me.

Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams.

Hope on

And while thy willing soul transpires
At every pore with instant fire
