Is a stillness of a darkened moon, lingering
in a cool night sky...falling effortlessly toward
a calming dawn...catching a lover’s eye.

Is where a flowery bloom touches, where
dunes of flowing winds caress, where
laughter echoes against a loon's cry...
And owls nestle the trees.

Oh...but to feel the sauntering winds
that wash and sooth and calm...
That bring to thought a dream’s
amend...and chant a weathered psalm.

And whence the stem no longer bends
upon the flower red...two hearts shall
beat as one which sends...a wish as
fingers tred.

Such tenderness...so difficult to convey for most...but somehow, you do.

Oh my...A vision of romance that no heart can ignore...The gentle flow of your words are like a lovers caress under the warmth of a summer moon...Ah you make me wax poetic...well done, my friend...**big hugs**

Soft sighs can be heard coming from Canada.
Hugs to you Barry.

Life is one great big canvas;
throw all the paint on it you can.
