Genesis Evermore A shy little boy of only eight Handed her a single red rose Childhood friends and forever soul mates So here is how the story goes To the senior prom they went A red rose fragrant her corsage Such power to its scent True love could never a mirage Giggling, she threw the bouquet From the steps of the church Red roses for her wedding day No more would they search Years gone and times changed But not the garden they had grown Their proof of unity, never estranged Heart to heart, they will never walk alone 10 years since he departed Still she receives roses from her groom A reminder of how love got started That stretches beyond tomb The bush that he planted Only blooms but one day a year For a love that was never taken for granted She recalls with a tear Their anniversary, a day she holds dear A miracle rose straight from his shore Two different realms, but one message is clear. With a soul mate brings…Genesis evermore It is a blessing to have wings for words, and passion in pen Marina Crossley [This message has been edited by Marina (edited 07-06-2000).] |

Marina... well, I also love writing love poems, and though i have true feelings, they are hard to describe with words, your poem has just reminded me what love should be like and you have my biggest appreciation here.. (It's as if the poem's narrated one's life, so touching, I really want to see more of your poems..Marina).... I want to give you at least 100 votes for this one.. - James The beauty of nature is displayed, not through itself, but through the creatures dwelling within its bosom. |
