As rain is drawn to ocean and sinners to their knees, am I with great emotion o'erwhelmed with Love for thee. As wind is necessary to fling the flower seed, so too must I now carry the song of my hearts need. As the swallows of Capistrano inbreed that place as home, as sun turns storm to rainbow, to thee I pen this poem. As porpoise freely glide the sea and birds take to the air, the young in spring define esprit and generals must dare. As royalty to family tree, anonymity legionnaire, so too must I now cleave to thee in passion so declare. In patience I've not known before I yet will fan the fire, for you the one that I adore and to my core desire. Hope hinges on tomorrow, as light defines the day, I'd be wither'd in sorrow should you throw this Love away. Know thee most never know the bliss of the passion I am of, pray thou the strength not to miss the promise of this Love. |

Richard, I do believe this is the nicest piece of writing I have ever read of yours, this is a keeper for sure (into the poetry festival with this one my friend!) Loved it, loved it! "Lose your temper and you lose a friend; lie and you lose yourself." |

Poet Devine; Such mush ignites my blush. Thank you. Lone Wolf; I enjoy your enjoyment. Thank you. Suetang; The fact that someone read and enjoyed from across the globe is exciting. Thank you. Balladeer; For my modest submission to gain your attention and encouragement is high praise. (notice I changed my icon?)
