Thoughts of You I thought of you today. Of sunrises gazed upon from the back porch swing Of sunsets pondered from the front Of birds chirping on a cool spring morning Of dewdrops glistening on the grass Of bluebonnet fields, thick and blue Of honeysuckle air, drenched and sweet Of kitten's fur brushed softly against my skin Of kitten's purr rumbling gently in my ear Of the intoxicating scent of freshly-cut grass Of the sun's rays warming my tender soul Of a slow, refreshing dip in a tiny secluded creek Of the taste of dewberries, straight from the vine Of ladybugs vying for that topmost leaf Of busy ants marching to their own beat Of crickets chirping in the night air Of lightning bugs waltzing to their song Of moonlight splashing against your skin Of your beautiful smile as we dance under the stars Of the way you love me, gentle and true Of how much I need you, no other will do I thought of you today. And it made me smile. 5/12/00 |

Beautiful poetry...beautiful thoughts.  Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |

I could actually picture Judy Garland humming the song "a few of my favourite things" in the background while reading your poem, though I think your list of things is far superior...hhehe.. That was lovely, it is just made this cloudly sky seem clear blue. |
