Sunset surrenders radiant hues
Golden flash to velvet horizon
Warming me with promises of tomorrow
In the deafening solitude of stillness of night
Seeking the keys of love and life

Ponderings of past, questioning the future
Memories, and dreams flooding the chambers of my heart
A ripple of a stone cast upon the waters of time
Reflections of love, remembering a child’s daydreams
Hidden in the dark of night

For so long I guarded my heart
Treasures locked securely in hidden chambers
A prison of solitary confinement
Another casualty of love gone aground
Shipwrecked on a sea of lonliness

Then……….. there was you
Trust rebirthed in love
Key to my heart in your capable hands
Unlocking dreams and faith
Fantasies became reality, passions unbridled.

With the radiance of dawns new light
I am reminded of the bond we share
Your tender words comforts me
As the morning star shines with new hope
Finally I know what it means to be a woman


A woman in bloom..........


aloha... with warm regards

"A woman in bloom..."

There's a whole new poem just begging for your pen, there, and it will be as light and graceful as this gift...
