So beautiful to get lost in you...
in the words that pull me to and fro
Calling to me through the morning dew
begging me to never let them go

A welcome that lights my soul afire
warming the coldest night frost
Opening my eyes to heartfelt desire
what it means to love at any cost

Images spin like ballerinas of gold
dancing to the melody of weave
Falling over the roses silken fold
blaming me with beauty when I grieve

You spin the tales that lovers dance to
I see your heart and soul shine
I walk through the tales with you
Making the visions you create...mine

So I thank you from the depths of my heart
for the words that accompany my night
I can barely wait for the next fine weave to start
Then I can get lost...in poetry and candle light

Holly-girl~

I just love this~ The rhyme, flow, and sentiment is divine! All poets will relate deeply, I'm sure! My library must have this

Take care,

This was stunning, sweetie. You deserve all that and so much more. Love may have a price, but if it true it is well worth it. Wonderful to see you again. Your words are fabulous. What is that sound? I think I just heard a butterfly ROAR!!!!

Take care you.

So beautiful to get lost in you...

These lines were so cool. All of them were really. A real beautiful creation.
