The soft summer sky shimmers with radient delight, upon endless
fields of clover and slender grasses.

Images float by in white clouds, drifting lazily with the passing
day.

Songbirds trill their sweet love songs, paying tribute to the
season.

Fish swim gracefully in the rippling lake, washed by a sun of
golden yellow.

A doe lifts her lovely brown head, testing the wind with her
delicate nose, nostrils flaring, searching for the scent.

Butterflies in miriad hue, flutter from bud to bud, sipping the
nectar of life.

All of these things, well within my view, are joyous to my heart
afame with love for you.

They call to me, with mystic voice. Becken me to their worldly
charm with promises of hidden delight.

Come to me, they cry, softly, on a zepher wind.

Take her hand in yours. Lead her to this place created for your
special time together.

Look into her eyes, bright with the glow of a thousand candles
hungry for your touch.

I shudder at the pure and raptuous gaze of she who cherishes me
above all else.

She is yours, they whisper on the breeze.

Come to us, both of you. Join us in the celebration of life.

We have always been here. Waiting for you. You are welcome to
share our cup with each other.

And I am content.



the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

A perfect scene, Pegasus, and wonderfully written.  She is a lucky lady.

To love another person is to see the face of God.

...of such peace and serenity, this sings its song to me...and I stopped to listen with all my heart.
