For Her How often may I walk among these sweet Elysian fields, where perfume never meant for men, each fragrant flower yields? How often may I rest my head on heaven's softest cloud and touch the face of innocence that God alone endowed? How often may I feast upon Ambrosia as my due and taste this nectar deep and long 'til hunger's pains are through? How often may a symphony of sound caress my ear, cascading tones of beauty born to worship and revere? How often am I blinded by the brilliance of the dawn, the golden hues of artist's dreams to which my eyes are drawn? The fragrance of Elysian fields lies nestled in her hair, the comfort of the softest cloud, her bosom warm and bare. The nectars of her hidden fruit are mine each time we kiss, her voice a simple symphony, of music tinged in bliss. And when her face I chance to see I sigh and slowly melt, my senses overwhelmed by love I'd dreamed but never felt. |

You do have a way with words, David! This is very beautifully done! I suppose most of us have had an unrequited love. You've expressed it wonderfully. Denise |
