From rain come flowers
From rain come flowers Oh my love, have I fallen like Rain upon mud-sodden ground That turns your love away From the sun I’ve always found April-soaked puddles Are where May flowers abound See how the one relates to the other Both in spring’s forest Where forgiveness and love Are the sweetest sounds
The bridge from me to you
The bridge from me to you I love how the bridge of life arches from here to there Firmly fixed and connected to you, that’s where The heart is not naturally a lonely soul at all But seeks its connection, whether large or small A delicate breeze ripples the river A coldness across the valley…
Love flows eternal
Love flows eternal There at the end of our garden in view Flows a river of love with my memories of you Dip your feet in the shallow and see There was nothing shallow between you and me Cool is the water that flows ankle deep Passion is the heart that makes the birds cheep…

How beautiful you are to me
How beautiful you are to me Let’s take a walk in the forest together, you and I Listening to the robins and bluebirds chirping through the trees A babbling brook flows over rocks Sunlight breaks through green leaves above A family of rabbits scurries up to you, some shyly holding back, some showing love You…
Pretending to fly
Pretending to fly Could we read a story together Just you and I Let’s immerse ourselves in the words and Like robins and bluebirds Pretend to fly When I shared my poem with you A part of me flew Flew from my heart to yours As high as an eagle soars We were never the…
