Essence of Thy Glorious Heart and Gentle Soul

Essence Of Thy Glorious Heart And Gentle Soul When thy spirit joined in depths to meet mine When thy spirit joined in depths to meet mine Far more emerged than, love united pair With essence of magic, world became thine Spring came, sunflowers bloomed and all was fair Past our reasoning, we were born anew Upon sacred trails we found love's soft glow Rarest of gems found, darling that was you I was heavenly blessed, now love I know. With keen eyes and velvet touch thee taught With keen eyes and velvet touch thee taught Toe-tapping, dancing birds how to high fly Faith born of wisdom that can not be bought Gave happiness, bluest blue in the sky Where garden's narrow edge met forest greens Your voice beckoned great adventure to call Enchant two hearts with beauty's finest scenes Off that high ledge we would there, gladly fall. When thy spirit joined in depths to meet mine When thy spirit joined in depths to meet mine Days and nights melted in enticing dreams Each moment, heavenly feast we would dine Wrapped ever deeper in our love cast beams Thus where angels feared to tread we walked With soul filled glee in each long forward step Upon clouds waving white we gaily talked In joy there, we laughed so hard we then wept. With keen eyes and velvet touch thee taught With keen eyes and velvet touch thee taught This lost soul to fly forth and weep no more Thee gave far, far more than ever I sought Paradise summons from its white-sand shore With just a smile thee erased my sad calls On silver platters gave love's true desserts Goblets of wine from golden palace halls Diamond encrusted shoes and rich silk shirts. Robert J. Lindley, 1-08-2017 (Ten syllables) Poetry form- (Romanticism)
