Poem
When Nature's Beauty and Sky's Heart Became One
 
Emerald glen, I first saw angel’s wings come down
one of Nature's bright treasures outside our small town;
as brilliant glows entered sad heart and seeing eyes,
I heard voices from Heaven, soothing joyful cries,
turning I saw an angel dance on golden ground
that is when our heart both became forever bound.
Yours shining with the kindness of joy and sweet glee,
gifting deepest romance ever to engulf me.

I saw your transformation into flesh and bone,
Nature's power, did your face and beauty there hone;
with forest's golden hues in your shining bright hair,
never was Nature so great nor lady so fair,
your eyes took vivid color of that meadow span
found greatest of loves ever born in heart of man.
Then your first gaze found me transfixed and in rapture,
thus you knew this heart and soul was yours to capture.

Blessed sepals gifted me winsome petals pure,
the essence of your presence was this being’s cure.
Dreams adrift with promise in your buds of sunrise,
adorning glory generous in summer eyes; 
hazel green with flecks inlaid gilded amber light
letting me behold your rose of unblemished white.
In virgin air our vibrant love a twining vine,
amorous scrolling glowing in euphoric shine.

In everlasting soul’s light rays of sunshine paled,
inhaling want of evergreen love you exhaled,
music filled my heart’s stage - our romantic ballet,
breezy ballerina took zephyrs’ breath away.
Honeydew eves in summertime rhythms we did seize,
intoxicating lust sipped with mint julep ease, 
ecstasy’s teardrops fell from ethereal swoon,
our heartstrings strummed with beads from old melting moon… 

Thoughts of you tickle musing windchimes in my mind,
memories stirring of your magic unconfined.
You came to me, beloved, carried on the wind,
from rapturous beginning our kindred souls’ twinned.
In your eyes I saw the skies where your rose called home
but with you I shared paradise ‘neath Heaven’s dome.
You kindled passion’s flames, angel of astral planes
when natural beauty and light flowed through your veins.
