Your Love Strings Gems

Your love strings gems, perfectly petalled pearls to compliment my throat. Its necklace encircles the hollows where my pulse keeps time to the breath which was Your first good gift. My value increases, thus dressed – for, draped with Your signature, I become who I was designed to be, on Jeweller’s best letterhead. Your love…

Your love strings gems,

perfectly petalled pearls

to compliment my

throat. Its necklace

encircles the hollows

where my pulse keeps

time to the breath

which was Your first good gift.

My value increases,

thus dressed – for,

draped with Your signature,

I become who I was

designed to be, on

Jeweller’s best letterhead.

Your love christens me

beautiful,

rosebud ravishing;

my spirit thirsts for

more of this untamed

and magnificent Lover,

whose extravagance

strings gems.

      🙂 Thanks, Gallivanta!

    Not fair–now I have a 2nd fave in one week!!! This one is both exquisite and delightful–and I wish I’d written it first!! (Those look like baby peonies, but they can’t be, right?) God bless you BIG–love, sis Caddo

      They are a flowering plum – baby rosettes, delightfully sweet. I haven’t had the chance to be out with my camera for a few days – I hope they are in full bloom soon, for some more writing fun! 🙂

      1. Caddo-Jael

        Wow, flowering plum–do they bear fruit? As my cherry trees do not–just wonderful pink snow petals (or white).

      2. melodylowes

        No, these don’t. And they only bloom for a day or two – inevitably during a windstorm, so they blow off in a matter of hours. *sigh* But they sure are pretty!

        Sometimes it is the transient things which are most beautiful, cherished–no? Love to you today, Mel.

        Thanks, Caddo – I will soak it up and let it bolster me! 🙂

    As soon as I saw that picture – I pictured an entire room decorated based around the flowers.

    1. melodylowes

      How lovely! And it would smell great!

    Aaahh…”your love christens me beautiful”…love the thought. This poem is a beauty to read. And oh, how much He must really love us!!!

    1. melodylowes

      What a delicious thought! I so agree, Patty.

    Melody, this is a “perfectly petalled” poem! I also love the shade of pink your “pearls” wear.

      Thanks Wendy! It is such a joy to have all my old flowering friends back…
