Thoughts of you

Shades of maple, shades of elm,

along a winding wishing stream

Of lily pad and cattail smiles

a’ glistening in rippled gleam

 

So soft the grass upon the hill,

where bluebirds sing their melodies

Harmonically with skies of blue

in perfect midday symphonies

 

It’s here amidst the air so free

I take this lazy afternoon

To think about the one I love

where precious wildflowers bloom

 

For this you see is what I dream,

someday the two of us shall share

While watching clouds across the sky,

and spending time with little care

 

For seeing butterflies at play

as branches flow in whispered dance

Like shadows tickling the ground

alone within a sweet romance

 

Until that time does come to pass,

desired dreams have all come true

Among this beauty I will rest,

so lost within my thoughts of you

A softly dreamily romantic poem written in perfectly rhyming verse.

So soft the grass upon the hill,
where bluebirds sing their melodies
Harmonically with skies of blue
in perfect midday symphonies

Loved the softness and delicacy of the imagery woven throughout the poem. This art is so uniquely you...
