Spark in my heart

Words of a poem
Paper and pen
spark in my heart
Gift from a friend

Wonderful magic
Harmony, grace
Remember your smile
And your embrace

Your breath awoke
The poet in me
And opened my heart
So my soul could see

My timing unsteady
But your love it shows
And hearing your whisper
Inspiration arose

Now I will listen
For my heart no choice
And echoing in me
The sound of your voice

The song of my angel
My eyes on above
And walking beside me
The footsteps of love

My brown eyed muse

My brown eyed muse, his words diffuse
They echo in my soul
His trusted word, my heart has heard
Belief has made me whole

His angel heart, will never part
And with me he'll abide
I will be strong, this path I'm on
For he still walks beside

Footsteps of love, from up above
Guide me eternally
And I can stand holding his hand
And fly forever free

Gifted by fate

Saved from a Tartarean fate
By your eternal love
The chaos of confusion now
A shining light above

You reached into my very soul
And with an angel breath
You gave me strength to carry on
With life after your death

So from a fate of hellish pain
I'm gifted by your grace
And any moment I feel lost
I glance upon your face

On the wings of a dove

Where the ocean is
An emerald green
And the stars in heaven
Can always be seen

Where trees are lush
And sand is white
And a beautiful day
Turns to gorgeous night

Where the sweetest sound
Is your whispered love
I'll be arriving
On the wings of a dove

His burgundy rose

The words he used
His burgundy rose
Very few others
Understood, I suppose

Her beauty, unconscious
Shone from her eyes
He won't trade those moments
For jezebel's lies

And burgundy roses
Describe her love well
And says to her softly
The words he can't tell

Her hand would always
Reach him in the mist
How he felt forever
He was blessing kissed

Scared and unsure
But wanting to keep
Whirled emotions
Of love oh so deep

One dozen roses
For who he held dear
Gift to the woman
That washed away fear

Then he asked a question
She answered him "Yes!"
Hearts so entwined
Beat with happiness

Stars twinkling, moonlight
In their private space
As he holds he closer
His loving embrace

You see now her beauty
So shining with love
Finds echoes in starlight
From heaven above

Love at any age

I do not believe
Love's just for the young
When I was there
My life's just begun

I yearned and I stretched
And I hungered for more
Without understanding
What I'm looking for

My love as a teenager
Innocent, sweet
My soft eyes adoring
The men I would meet

But love in my twenties
Of passion burned wild
Left me with reminders
While raising a child

Love in my thirties
So honest and true
For I met my soul mate
The day I found you

Now love may come calling
Again in my life
Though I doubt I'll ever
Be anyone's wife

But I know the truth
Of what love means to me
When you hold their hand
And your spirit is free
