I remember everything you said
As we lay together in our bed
The light of joy lit up my heart and soul
I remember everything we did
On the happy night that we were wed
Fulfilment in our very bones is bred
And from our minds the devils have all fled
As we’re taken back into the fold.
For one small hour in Eden we were glad.
The hatred and the pain for now are shed
With love and hope our lives can be more bold.
Even now when you have gone from sight
Though our colours mingled, the earliest remain.
Two watercolor paintings without frames,
Became one picture over time,
Yet two of us still there.
Our colours blended naturally,
Now all the hues are shared.
I love your colours flowing into mine:
Together they have made a new design.
A Watercolor painted by the rain;
We shall go, but our Watercolor Love will still remain
Apples hang low near the ground.
robins chirrup all around.
sun on glowing maple leaves
gives a red glow that deceives.
Autumn air is flowing near,
though it’s still bright summer here.
wind dismays the flowering rose
as with arrogance it blows.
Leave me one flower for my eyes.
Leave me roses as I sigh.
Leave me not, my dearest one.
Soon enough we shall be gone.
What remains is love alone.
If your heart is not of stone,
Fear not sorrow,fear not woe.
Into this earth all must go.
Then we shall be mixed as one;
all distinctiveness soon gone.
Whether foreign or home grown
None of us shall be alone
Worms don’t see our passport stamps;
Beetles know naught as they tramp…
We will be but food for free…
As we rest beneath the tree.
How my heart sings
