For Love

Can you hear the sound?
Standing upon the grassy hill
the subtle noise of chilled grass 
between your toes, the smell 
of fresh roots, creeping to 
the surface 
breaking the barrier 
feeling the crunch 
the birth giving way to 
beautiful sunshine 
radiating off the joy we 
all share with one another 
love shines, climbs and 
in some cases...fades 
but your love doesn't, it
stays keeps beating like the 
drummer's song, upon the 
battlefield, we can all feel 
your heart, your song, your 
echo upon each fluffy cloud 
as they do their slow 
motioned dance upon the wind

It is unlike any wind heard 
before its noise as it rattles 
the row of cans upon the 
old creaking fence that has 
seen the love of youths 
perched upon its mantle 
platonic or romantic love 
comes in such a range of 
variety how can we not 
see it as living born from
us all, a gift to the 
ones we cherish the most
come, come one and all
and see the source of
this Divine Love on 
the perfect day to celebrate 
the love a Mother to 
child, thank you for your 
love that transcends 
any mental state, romantic 
venture or acquired ecstasy 
Love you Mom
