Windswept

a simple love poem

art ~ Gary Benfield

Don’t hasten the winds that tenderly tease

and breathe gracefully, as the falling leaves

rain from heaven, as soft as tears wept

 

Let us float carefree, as wildflowers dance

in a warm embrace, with the ambiance

of beauty, forever, in our hearts kept

 

We’ll gather this breeze, this sweet disarray,

only for two, and here we will stay,

together in love and completely windswept

Are you the willow?
The flowers blown away,
but the tree remains.
Dancing with the wind,
and still growing.

A lovely romantic tale no regrets for a sweet kiss will make it blissful.

Once again Julie, you show that love is as beautiful as an early morning sunrise is. And as refreshing as a cool ocean breeze is on a hot summer day is. Love is the breath we breathe. :) Larry
