Wildflower

~ What if I, came rolling through your pasture Touched your hair, like summer whispers on the breeze You are all, of every wildflower As you take your bloom, beneath the cedar trees What if life, were singing through your petals As you bend your stem, to reach your song to me I will always look for greener pastures And your beauty, a wildflower growing free ~

A wild flower I would like to see. A wild flower I would like to be. Blooming and free. I do love when I see them. Well done Chris :)

Hello Chris, My heart has betrayed me to. I got over it because I do not want to live in the past. Enjoy your day my friend. Darlene\

Life gives us 'what if' choices that pit our minds and hearts against each other. Hearts win more times than not, but I'd rather give in to my heart instead of sitting on my porch steps and wonder, "what if." Hearts are treacherous and mine betrayed me a couple of times, but I'd listen to it again. Softly, your lines whisper to those who'd listen to their call. Wildflowers are beautiful when they are in bloom. Love it, Chris.

Thanks so much Lin. I am thrilled you liked this one. It was a quick little write. Just looking back at spring and trying to see past these 100 degree days (months)
