A Love Such as This

As breathless as a falling star,

of monarchs in a mason jar

 

of rainbows in their fullest hue,

of daylight in a mist of dew

 

of children’s laughter,

a newborn’s cry…

the utter joy of being alive

 

to dance in fields of morning glories

the happily-ever-after story, are we, with…

 

a love such as this.

 

 

 

Author's Note

...sorry for the long in between time between posts! I badly sprained my ankle on my daily jog, and have been feeling out of sorts. I hope you enjoy this, for I rarely do a rhyme.

First off, the picture is beautiful! Second, the rhyme is exceptional, something I noticed you don't do very often. A beautiful description of love...I wish I had. :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

Perhaps I will dabble with rhyme a little more often. So happy you enjoyed this, Kelsey!

Okay, "YOU, keep off that ankle and give it a chance to heal good … you'll be out jogging again before you know it!"
What a fun picture for this one, Kelly, and the soft-feeling font is absolutely perfect to caress the mood through this rare (for you) Free Style rhymer.
"A Love Such as This", indeed! You captured my heart and imagination between the sweet allure your words convey and the warming thought of "a love such as this."

You humble and touch me deeply with your gentle nature, Kelly.
Thank you so happily! ⁓ Richard

...me too, Julie...me too! Thank you so much!

Kelly, You may not do many rhymes, but you certainly had a "leg up" on this one. A tale of love told sparingly, like a blank wall with love graffiti sprayed in carefully selected spots. Nicely done, thank you for sharing with us. take care...dan

[Kelly Scheppers]

I adore the analogy of the graffiti sprayed on the wall...perhaps I should rhyme more...many thanks, Dan!

[andrew mitchell]

lovely writing one legged one! Hope you feel better soon! Running!

[Kelly Scheppers]

I hate losing my jogging time! But I will keep my foot AND my chin UP! ....many thanks, Andrew!

[andrew mitchell]

you are welcome" hop skip and a jump!"

[Dean]

writing like a fresh breath for the reader. I hope the ankle is better. Please be careful.

[Kelly Scheppers]

I am feeling better, Dean...not quite ready for dancing though! ; )

[R Smith]

if you don't do rhyme often Kelly then you should do more this is absolutely beautiful :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

I think perhaps I will, Richard...many thanks, my friend!

[Lydia Shutter]

The rhyming is great...and very different for you. I enjoyed the romantic upbeat feel of this one. The font was a little difficult for me to read. Guess my eyes are getting old! :) Hope the ankle feels better, Kelly. Lydi**

[Kelly Scheppers]

Sorry about the font, Lydi. I rarely use this one....just trying something new for a change. My hubby and I make quite a pair - he has a bacterial eye infection that's impairing his vision, and I can barely walk! There's got to be humor in that somewhere, right? ; )

[Lydia Shutter]

Difficult to find it when you are going through it. Hopefully you will both be better soon. Did you get the email I sent you last week? Had a Marilyn graphic that I shared with you.
