*challenge answer, thanks deVine*

once again, my legs begin to run
'neath a bright and shining sun
at first, it was like a dream
or so my feeble mind thought
sitting here by time's stream
the answers so long for sought

once again, dawns the first morn
over the bright, green lawn
again my love, our rose dies
pricked again by the thorn
appearing as petal in disguise

once again, shall love be unfound?
a beating heart the only sound?
a softest touch again I crave
will I again in love abound?
your touch I take to my grave

once again, removes the disguise
I am only who I can be
standing here before your eyes
with the least amount of vanity
again, this change I undergo
my eyes upon love's prize
yours the only one I know
as I sail beyond the skies

---------------------------------------------------------------

You do it once again! You are so wonderful in the romance department! Hunk of burning passion just floating into the sunset! Paddle girls! Paddle! LOL!
