Cupid Pulls Back the Bow

On Angel wings doves opened the heavens with pillows of clouds on a blue canvas Cupid drew back his bow; arrow driven straight in my riven heart; lifetime plan was Down on one knee and a ring in your hand Shocked I said I will on Valentine’s Day Tears down my cheeks what none can understand? To walk hand in hand in the morning rays Grandmother’s gauze cotton lace wedding gown Bathed in the light of love a dream come true Pearls, orange blossoms, and leaves bridal crown Two shall become one, kneeling on church pew Oh my love, my darling you are still mine Tears of gladness defines our love still shines 1/6/2017
