At a Lost For Words

A word was softly  spoken
Causing beautiful inner
Feelings to seed and grow

As they began traveling
To waiting ears hoping,
That a special heart might
Come to know.

The  glorious intent of the
Message he sent,  hoping it
Would open her mind so
She would see…

What he was desperately
Trying to say to her heart,
Because for her love he
Had a desperate need.

He had spent the night before
In quiet dreams, trying to
Think of the right words which
Would  turn her smile his way…

And the next morning his efforts
Were rewarded, as his words
Came together bearing fruitful
Seed this day.

When her heart heard his
Delightful message of  deep
Longing,  her spirit was now
Moved to really believe...

That there was now a true hope
For love to begin,  in a place where
She thought it would never
Possibly  be.

And she told him also of secret
Feelings she had, for her
Hidden dreams were always
Of loving him.

And she gave his heart the
Thrill of a lifetime, saying
Because of his sincere love
She was also ready to begin

A lifetime of love together.
