Remember when our love was brand new
and how we used to thrive in each others company
and hang off every word we said
How we danced in the rain without a care in the world
We drew hearts declaring our love
in the sand and watched the sun set
as we stood in a passionate embrace
drowning in the excesses of our love

Then time passed and we both changed
through no fault of our own
We seemed to play a different tune
but our sweet melody must still be there
..............somewhere?

My love has all but gone like a seabird
flyng free over the ocean in search
of a new destination
Maybe the love we once knew is lying
dormant like a crocus beneath the snow
waiting patiently to reawaken in the
Spring growing stronger and more beautiful
Or maybe the bulb will shrivel and die
before it has a chance to break through
the snow and enjoy another Spring

No, it can't die! There's no dying here! It can grow. With words like "A crocus waiting
under the snow" there's no way! Bloom Sue Bloom. Bloom all over the place.   Then he'll have no choice but notice you! It is still there! He better wake up and smell the roses! Sorry I'm an Oprah fan. But you are really touching me here. You words are beautiful. Leave him a note that says "No thorns, just Rose petals tonight honey!" And lead the way to your heart with them! I know, I'm a perfect stranger. Well...anyways
Write!!!!  
Sincerely,
Rwood

There are many flowers in my garden that bloom profusely. Fortunately, not too many die. Take care.....Sue
