Summer Love

Softer than an infant’s cheek, gentler than a summer rain, more graceful than a woodland creek, more mystery than curving lane, your steadfast love entreats and charms, pursues my heart with winsome ways; my heart, a rosebud in your arms, blushes beauty at your gaze.

Softer than an infant’s cheek,

gentler than a summer rain,

more graceful than a woodland creek,

more mystery than curving lane,

your steadfast love entreats and charms,

pursues my heart with winsome ways;

my heart, a rosebud in your arms,

blushes beauty at your gaze.

    Wonderful, I love it! Makes me think of the song in “Grease”…

      Thanks! We’re just getting to the god stuff now, garden and flower-wise. Things are looking pretty!

        Really pretty.

        Oops – I meant ‘good stuff’, not ‘God stuff’ – although I’m pretty sure He had a say in its arrangement. 🙂

        I wasn’t sure but either way, God or good, seemed to work well in the context.

    That was beautiful. WordPress needs a ‘Love This’ button.

    In a weeks that has been all topsy-turvy (physically) for me, poems like this remind me of who and what matters.
