Magic Beans

It was magic beans you placed in my hand as we held Ones you nurtured,  embedded deep within your love I know because it tormented me with euphoria planted Stalked me earnestly  with your charming advances You know I climbed walls 'til next you stood at my side   When you  occupied me and I  began to grow, the eclipse  Was gigantic, extraordinary, a wanting wildness sublime You were my mystical hen, the one who laid Golden Eggs You made our home a  majestic castle suited for royalty   It was magic beans you infused in my hand as we held Made me spin searching for a long pole to slide down Escape with you  my loving wife from the Giant Ogre  Inside me, I who feared commitment, a long time alone But now you are the only enchantress I need or crave   And when it is my turn to die, take with me to the grave The feel of you deeply rooted beyond my meager frame From the soil above my coffin will grow beyond the sky The largest plant with leaves shaped in awe of our lives Steps beyond the clouds you'll find me playing my harp   An angelic music and song that will herald our union Speak of our story in fable for children's open ears Adapted to capture their imaginations, inspire them Lift a glass in cheer to magic beans entrenched in you 01~12~2015 Maurice Yvonne Sponsor: Poet Destroyer A Contest Name: Magic Beans

this is so magical, the feeling it inspires of marriage and love. And the awe you feel for the enchantress of the magic bean stalk. I love how you ended it as a fable to inspire children, whom I saw as your own children in life. This is such a sweet entry for the contest!
