~ the Meadow ~
The meadows clearing....
Surrounded by the forest, afore the mountains sculpted by time
Majestic splendors, rising, beneath the blueish skies
With cascading waters, of virgins white melting snow
Heavens unveilings, before all of our eyes
These gifts unto the living, and all of life ~
As a mother deer stands frozen, aside her infant buck
Stirrings within the backdrops, that only her senses can perceive
While I watch her intently, and she watches me
Smiling at this wonder, created from the dust
A vision envisioned....
Before there was breath, or even light to be seen
Unfathomed treasures, beyond the diamonds of sight
The quiet that engulfs, this reflective mind ~
Looking unto the firmaments; beyond
Which shall soon reveal her twinklings, among the galaxies from afar
Eyes within this moment, that stand in awe
Beholding these castles, whereof once I never could
See clearly these tidings, of paradisiacals endless days ~
Glancing back at this mother; this deer and infant buck
A heart that melts, often ~
When I hear her voice, softly speaking unto me....
Wrapping her arms about my waist, gently, as she slowly proceeds
Within these sparklings, of soulful dreams, whispering, into my ears again
As I feel her breath, warm, that enraptures me so
While I take her hands, perfect, within my own
And together again, we are, as we become, one ~
Speechless, upon these streets made of gold...."Now, Beyond"
This canvas, and beyond this time
Unto the promises of tomorrows, forevermore....
Smiling as I turn, to kiss her sweet and fragrant lips
Knowing, that we shall always be like this ~
While the mother she then, blinks her innocent eyes
And her baby he leaps, with joy inside
As his father approaches, with his siblings in tow; reunited
These dawnings that awaken, as I draw her close
Breathing her beauties, and kissing her hair
Amid this moment together, becoming as one....
Seeing yesterdays promises, now, beyond these hues ~
Winking as they smile, these Angels, always watching us all
While The Father He glistens, as we stand in awe
Before the forest, the mountains, and the water falls
Within the meadows of clearings; these visions
The jewels of eternals, "Everlasting Love" ~
As she embraces my heart, and I caress her brow
Approaching, again, to say hello unto us now
The Father of all creation, and the Son, of all light
Together as one, together, for all of "Time!"
