It Is This-

It is anything and everything The song of the soul singing within A child’s laugh playing their games The suns warmth on the face in April The peaks of the Appalachians It is staring down the Grand Canyons cliffs Unharvested endless plains of Montana Walking in the gentle rains of summer Setting sun in the middle of the Atlantic It is these I rarely recall… It is that first gift given of your smile Endless days walking holding hands The gentle peace deep within Hazel eyes Her sultry glance of passion burning brightly The rhythmic breathe while she sleeps It is the ease of laughter she shares with me The manner of her walk as she comes and goes Her gentle caress steadying as I lose myself to fear Those sacrifices made with the gift of children An undying faith held… It is this I see within my wife… …Beauty unbound
