(This is more like a love letter than a poem - hope you don't mind me posting it) NATURE’S SONG I saw so many things in the passing years of time like lampshades tilted right and brass turned copper lights, tiny, harmless spiders in corners by the door and stains upon the carpet I spied while bending low. Your love turned me away from dirt upon the floor as my eyes lifted up above to welcome in the stars and the sun shining bright while thinking cleanliness raced into my heart with warmth of kindliness. The passion in your soul holding hands inside my own sparkled bright as diamonds held on a band of gold and as your need and want turned into my desire the moon smiled with pleasure even on the darkest night. The trees and bushes evergreen, the birds were never still, flowers bloomed constantly throughout the winter chill, the rain as tears of happiness, the snow my comforter, and in all the summer flies I saw your smiling eyes. My heart now sings the tune of nature’s glory song strumming out the beat of pure eternal love and as the doves of peace build nests ever strong, so my love protected in clouds of cotton down. In God’s eternal home the wind of absence rests, a garland of roses I’ll place around your neck. I’ll lay a path of petals leading to my heart as in death we surrender and vow to never part. Helen |

Thank you, Pegasus, for responding. True love must be the ultimate experience of living. Hope it wasn't a bear hug! ![]() |

Helen; Exquisitely romantic poem. I feel all warm and fuzzy. Lucky guy to have you for his love. Sigh! ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |
