"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it..." E.E. Cummings Hello my dearest darling, it was our time to wake, The rustic rooster had already roused my reverie, Heralding the dewy dawn Of our new great day. For I could never live without you. I yearned for your presence all the time. Everywhere in the countryside was peace And crowned with our steadfast love With the sound of nurturing nature. As I lay on our comfy broad bed, I looked at my still-slumbering wedded wife. Her fragrant freckled face looked on so serenely, A soft sweet smile hovered on her luscious lips So peaceful and fair, As if she were amid many pleasant placid dreams So I could not bear to wake her up and spoil Her various favorite fantasies. Suddenly her emerald eyes fluttered wide open, And saw my boyish grim smiling seductively at her. She grabbed my head and lowered me on her lips That smell of lavish lavender filled my nostrils. This was a harmonious heaven on earth. Later we went down for our favorite food, We rode our bikes and pedaled hard, Admiring the snow-capped mountains that rose far. Cedars, larches, and junipers adorned the steep slopes Where eagles, kites and vultures flew Searching for their potential prey. Whilst on the grassy picturesque plain, Warblers, thrushes and orioles Twittered their serenade symphony songs. Finally, we arrived at my Taverna And beckoned the masterful Manager. Heard the required report on the gains I made. Everything was smooth For I wear my enchanting emotions up my sleeve. We idled the dreamy day away, Hugging and kissing most of the time. Partook of a delicious dinner for two, But at closing time we went back home, To a well-needed restful rural repose In each other’s enticing embrace. Placed 1st
