I wish for the spirit to quicken your movements
and bring to culmination all that is desired
by that unseen master who seeks acknowledgement
by surrender to impulses wisely directed.

I wish for you to find adoration in blue eyes
for that spirit still unknown to he who harbours it
and confines it to a destiny not preordained
by that self-same maker of all that has to be.

I wish for you to unlock the store behind the door
and uncover once again all that went before
life’s accidental fall into man-made circumstances
that make of love a useless energy.  

Oh, I wish, I simply wish, for you to know it all;
how a woman laughs, smiles, sighs, and touches you inside
when tears of happiness erupt from her eyes
and then I wish for you a great big haversack
to carry with you everywhere all her love of you!

so much emotion surging here, if only the recipient would feel it and know it is sometimes the gamble when we open the heart

How right you are inkedgoddess.  Sometimes our hearts open in spite of ourselves as it did in my case and I still want to know exactly how that came about ... and exactly how many other things happened as well.  Thanks so much for reading.

Helen
