Wild Flower

Deep into the green of the forest I once took to safari To discover the secrets of the wild. Among the thickets and the bushes I saw a flower in blossom Shining like in its first day of bloom. That was one time my eyes fell on you Among the population in my home town Like the flower that I saw..... It was you shining among them You comforted my heart Making me come up to you. That was then the day Like a dove that had lost its partner I cooed, you to woo. How you made me discover my lyrics again to you I sung and danced Song after song I spoke my heart to you. Little did I know wild flower You would return love in abundance Like the sands of the sea....... Day after day I shovel for love Ever abundant, never ending The reason my heart follows you. Tempted and pleased with your ways In the wild I would never let you be. With care and utmost wanting I dug you up Planting you in the garden of my heart There you flourish There you bloom and shine.
