Love Comes

Love Comes

 

As the river flows

And a soft wind blows,

Love comes in a rush

In a quiet hush.

 

Whispering by name,

It shares its fame.

Unlocking corridors of the heart

Which were once dark.

 

Tickling from inside

As a single feather guides

On an enduring breeze,

Love comes in a heap.

 

Falling… falling… by and by,

Yet, soaring high.

Drifting with the breeze

Ever so free.

 

Not bounded by limits,

But it is what it is…

A gift to be cradled and held,

Something to be felt.

 

When one least expects it,

Its presence is sent.

When dreaming is done,

Love comes.

I really love this piece overall, but I would love it even more if there was more concentration on the rhythmic aspects of the lines rather than the rhymes. Up to you, of course!! Great write :)

I agree dear Poet.
"Not bounded by limits,
But it is what it is…
A gift to be cradled and held,
Something to be felt."
Love is the greatest gift given and received. Thank you Melinda for sharing the excellent poetry.
