By the Lake

The blithe breeze blew sweet scent from vales where oft I went, by the shore of the lake, there we stood for your sake. Did you feel the sheer bliss; knew why I claimed a kiss? Breathe in the whiff of balm, A kiss and all were calm. My muse was full of rhyme It's all the spice of thyme, for spring brings out its grace. All is in its right place. My love lurked in my mind, My heart must burst and find A verse on joy and glee That showed the truth in me. Hear the birds up in height For now, they showed me light. I wrote my thoughts neath trees, then kissed in the light breeze.

so lovely and romantic, Victor. Sorry it's taking me so long to catch up with comments. I even probably lost ten people whose comments scrolled off my comment page.
