It Existed

Before the angels were created,
 Before the earth was formed.
Before the sky wore its night dress, spotted,
With shining stars snooping and giggling here and there, 
Whispering and spying on silly lovers here and there.
 Before the sun put on its golden robes,
Decorated with the rays of happiness and joys,
Its warmth engulfed children with their toys.
Before spring spread its green blanket,
Green blanket of Basel, grass,
Colored flowers and birds’ nests.
Before autumn spread it‘s roasted leaves,
Creating a path of romance for lovers, those,
 Who wished to finish the path of love believers.
Before winter spread its white blanket.
A white blanket of soft flakes teasing children’s cheeks.
Whiteness of hope, forgiveness and forgetting the breaks.
Before summer started its long days and short nights.
When the castles of sandstone were built,
 When the Boats and blue waves danced on Mermaid’s flute,
Before spirits embodied their corpses and gave life to them, 
Before the memories gathered in the box of mysteries,
 Before luminous water run over the scratches on lands,
Before the myriad treasures sunk down deep in the oceans. 
Your love has no time no doctrine; it existed deep inside, 
No one can separate it; no one can uproot it, as it is eternal.

Thanks for sharing this... 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.
