As This Heart Wakes To Your Soft Touch

As This Heart Wakes To Your Soft Touch

Sounding a change a call to arms  
echoes in heart's beatings
waging battles against world's harm
found within dawn's greetings
battle yields to heroic light
blessings send, strength to fight

to find a bountiful treasure 
wake to again truth see
by love, can one truly measure
life by a sound decree
for 'tis written, heart can renew
again, true love in you

'pon a night of moon's soft glowing
from Heavenly skies cast
spirals of love's sweetest showing
true love forever lasts
dear angel, hold this thought
love's gems we gaily caught

as this heart wakes to your soft touch
dawn its bright waking sings
our deep love held so very much
as flowers are to Spring
darling, await I for night dreams
and your falling moonbeams.

My dear friend, I am the one wonderfully inspired by the depth of emotion and the beauty of love's imagery. Your heart and golden pen poured forth an exquisite poem. I am honored that my poem inspired you to pen this gem. Precious is the gift of inspiration shared. "Night dreams" and "her falling moonbeams". Your artistry is radiant, Robert, such a gorgeous poem for Clarisa. A Fav! Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

After the loss of my beloved wife, a deep depression set in that has almost destroyed me . My poet friends here have been my salvation. God bless.

Thank you my friend. A huge part of my recovery is a return to my poetry writing. This poem came to be due to my search to make that much needed return. God bless...
