Hand of Hand

Through the evening mist I searched,
for the perfect flower.

But the flower that I searched for,
was always beyond my reach.

And as I walked I searched for her,
along this lonely beach.

Twas then I saw her standing there,
the soft light of evening, shinning in her hair.

As she stood there in deep repose,
I knew I'd found my special flower, she's a flower oh so rare.

And now we are together, I look to God above,
I thank Him for creating, my Dew Kissed Rose.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your wisdom through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
