My love will blossom Like the first flower That spring offers up To signal the rebirth Of another season It will bask wholly In the sun’s warm Penetrating rays Seeking nourishment From Mother Earth My love will flow Gently washing over you Like a cool stream On a hot summer’s day Quenching your thirst Some days though It will rage strong Like the mighty river Sweeping you along On passion’s current My love will soothe All the hurt inside Like an aromatic balm Covering your heart Healing from within It will set your soul free To play with the angels High above the clouds Once you’ve spent a night In my sheltering arms My love will keep watch Over you as you sleep Like the glowing moon Looking down from above Smiling from heaven It will make your dreams Come true for those moments We are all alone Burning as bright As a million stars My love will never end As long as there is breath Left in my body And my heart beats In rhythm with yours It will give you hope When the rest of the world Seems to let you down My love will lift you up Until the sun sets on your life Only then will I cease To return the love You have so freely Given to me When I needed it most Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

It will give you hope When the rest of the world Seems to let you down My love will lift you up Until the sun sets on your life Only then will I cease To return the love You have so freely Given to me When I needed it most almost too beautiful for words...just lovely writing ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II |

Written with a very gentle hand and a very open giving heart. Tender and full of love. Beautiful for a Monday morning, thank you! After years of searching, I have found I am nothing more, nothing less...I am in truth Just A Woman after all. |

Some days though It will rage strong Like the mighty river Sweeping you along On passion’s current My love will soothe All the hurt inside Like an aromatic balm Covering your heart Healing from within **** Passion and then healing from within, this is what real love is all about. This is Hallmark material without question! You have to love someone deeply to write like this and I must say, this made my Monday morning. Exceptional writing and so enjoyed.

Wynter . . . Thank you, and we all should be so lucky to have such a friend in our lives I think. Just A Woman . . . You are welcome and I am always happy to get someone's day off to a good start. Charisma . . . Thank you. They just seemed to keep on flowing. Glad you liked the result. Kate . . . That is a picture of true love for sure. Not sure about love, but he has never let me down. The friendship means a great deal to me. Thanks! SEA . . . You always say it so well. Thank you much. Kathleen . . . Thank you sweetheart.
