Sentiment, as bud upon the waterfall of green
Each morning, as the sun advances will
Not too sweet, the crown of what may come
Yet promise in reserve cooks quietly in secret

That I wear the finer silks, reposed in leaves
Welcoming back the heart song that moves me
In translucent theme to touch your hand and hold it
For I know the familiar place I am carried

Each morn the next step leads along the way
Opened more, withholding less in every day
So soon, the simmer of a summer dream shall rise
Presented to our hearts in sweet surprise

Honeysuckle may have the most heavenly scent on earth ThisDiamond. This poem has all the fragrance of that blessed blossom! Very Beautiful! :-)

I love the final stanza! It comes really out of nowhere to hit you with some melodic knowledge.

Oh my.

There are places TD, where honeysuckle is considered a nuisance. Guess you set those folks straight. It's a dainty, sweet smelling poem.

I see her, walking through
the forest, toward the meadow
of light...

a beautiful picture to start my day,
Kathleen.

Thank you.
