Eyes

I'll kiss your eyes with those of mine today
Caress and hold your gentle heart within
Touch your tender soul with intent to stay
This lovely garden is where love begins
The wants and needs of both will be fulfilled
With fragrant scent of flowers we'll create
Their petal scent from love of golden gild
Will reach a dreamy state at heaven's gate
To see them open as our motion slows
And feel soft trembling in our warming hearts
Frees the flames within as the fire grows
Brilliant light preceeds, loneliness departs

Today I kissed your eyes with those of mine
And found this garden with a lover's shrine

this is a beautiful romantic sonnet that I found here. And I came way back here to tell you how wrong you were about Weed Park. Isn't that a crazy name for a public park?? Anyway, I was just a kid in that pool. There was no skinny dipping going on. I only skinny dipped with hubbie on Utah Lake, and nobody was around as we lazed about in the lake one sunny day!!!

yes it is a crazy name for a park, and you are right about the days they seemed so long, now they feel like about 4 hours long....its great to hear you had an active childhood, in my time everyone played outside, sitting inside with a toy was only for rainy days...ps I'll never be able to skinny dip with my wife she can't swim...I had to ask her " how is it you grow up next to the ocean and can't swim" and I can't get her to learn.....
