Feelings

Soft winds gently rustle the leaves;
           
I hear your name.

Reflections shimmer across the lake;
           
I see your face.

A rainbow arches overhead;
           
I see your beauty.

Sunshine sends warmth to the world;
           
I feel your love.

Spring starts God’s creatures courting;
           
I relive our first date. 

A spider’s web floats across my face;
           
I feel your touch.

The lacey fern brushes my neck;
           
I feel your breath.

Wildflowers spread their soft fragrance;
           
I recognize your perfume.

Nature’s beauty surrounds my soul;
           
You are with me.

A baby rabbit sits in my hand;
           
You are a mother.

My lunch is shared with a fawn;
           
You are my best friend.

A stallion chases a mare;
           
We are good lovers.

A puppy lies there sick;
           
You are by my side.

Fate takes one and leaves the other;
           
I am so alone.

Nature gives me her endless love;
           
I call you my wife.
