It Was There

~ a romantic scribble ~

Love came softly

           like the mist in a dream

      as quiet as a breeze

as graceful as a stream

of flowers

               cascading

                         gently through the air

 

         So silent…

                I didn’t know it was there

 

As the breeze blew stronger

each petal on the ground

                      started to scatter

             still without a sound

      leaving just the mist

                       of dreams

                                to take me where

 

Love came softly…

                  but I believe it was there

Smiled and then thought, where was I when love came? Was it here or there? Anywhere?? Then I thought ohno I'm one of those who need to be smacked upside the head to know he's in love or loved. Hopeless Julie, tsk tsk. I think if it weren't for your little romantic scribbles (as well as a few others) I wouldn't even know what love is anymore. And you make it feel so wonderful...~~redzone

Oh I adore this love poem!
It carries a sweet fragrance that lingers and leaves one wishing to go back and delight again in the passing beauty of walking through the garden created by this poem.
Definitely another one added to my favorites!

This makes me think of the way the love between my husband and me came about - I was expecting a grand entrance like in the movies, but it came so softly that I didn't even recognize it at first. lovely.

Are we to believe love has ended ? This is a little different to your other works. A beautifully written piece yet again. Full of feeling in so few words. I see you have chosen a sad picture to accentuate this poem too. Clive.

Does love ever end? I don't believe so - I think there is a little part of our heart that keeps those lost loves...it is the ones that we don't realize are love until they are gone that mystify me....:) Julie

What a lovely whisper of words...soft and dreamy...

It's refreshing to "feel" the flow of your words, rather than being technical...
You always take me into a beautiful reverie with your romantic writes. :)

A gifted writer you are, Julie... Beautifully penned!~xoxo~:)

Like a stealth invader, albeit a most welcoming one !

A delightful treatise indeed !

sometimes we don't know love is there, and yet, we want to believe, and eventually we do believe.

nicely written piece...you are so good at these soft love poems...your words are like an enveloping mist that really feels refreshing.

Thank you Jacob. I appreciate your very kind words :) Julie
