A Gift of Love

Great beauty can be seen Always from within I tell you this… As I searched For all things Deep in my heart For all meanings I felt its’ warmth within Like the sun Playing in a field of buttercups Tingling on my skin I looked above Seeing a castle amongst the trees How rich the grass That I played in How soft the breeze This is the gift of love Every living thing Could feel love You could not hide Its’ colour Its’ meaning I touched a tree Looked upwards amongst its’ mighty boughs To the sky It reached forever Lifting me Such beauty that I saw In its’ heart That I felt in me This is the gift of love Billowing clouds rushed by The trees swayed My heart changed forever In the rich grass that I played In the sky Where I flew That a search must begin In a heart In a sun From within Great beauty was seen Not, in the forest Not, in a field of buttercups Not, in grass, rich and green Not, in skies, so blue In the heart The heart of you A gift of love Always from within I tell you this To start your search To begin With you
