Pretty Purple Lace

Just as the redbud spatters woodland edge
With pretty purple lace
And dogwood pinks and whites in bloom
A hundred shades of green engrace
So does your love surround my heart
With splendid hues of rainbow arc

Just as the rays of filtered sun
Fall through the forest canopy
And sundrops dance upon the ground
To rhythms of the wind and leaf
So does your love enhance my soul
Add new dimension to the whole

As mountain springs release their fill
And water wends through hilly seams
Just as the clear springwaters rush
And gather yet from other streams
So does my love forever grow
Just as the sparkling waters flow

As hummingbird his nectar sips
So do I long to kiss your lips

Your words
Are colored
They make
Me think
Arc and spark
In all the works
Of the rainbow arc
Of purple, pink
Red and white
A splendid dye
To the inner eye

Your words are bright
They bring forth light

I sure hope that someday I have someone display as much love for me as you have for the one that holds your heart.
I tip my hat to the "Queen" of passions.
Thank you for this loving read Elizabeth

This is one of my favorite poems on PIP and I've read it so many times... I'm shocked to see my name's not on the list of responders.

My apologies, Lady Santos, for not letting you know how much I appreciate your work!
