An Offer of Love

In the beginning
my heart opened slow.
As she offered her love
my love started to grow.
She knew not what the
outcome would be.
Still she gave in the hope
I would be able to see
the beauty of her love
she was offering to me.

James, it seems, by your beating heart icon that you have understood and accepted her love.
Very nice piece, really, very nice.
I don't think you need 'to' in the last line though, without it the rhythm is held well and the meaning is still there. I hope you don't mind my saying so, but a piece this good deserves no interruption of rhythm.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Very sweet read. Chris
