Leaves Talking

Their kisses are deep and gentle;
their embrace is magnetic and divine;
their souls are free and connected.

They are from different worlds;
different civilizations;
their souls though, know each
other very well.

Leaves of different colors, types, and sizes
dance in synchronized spiral around
the lovers. The leaves dance in silence
and rhythm, as though they have mastered
the heartbeat of the lovers.

Love is the most powerful
thing in the Universe. It's only love
that can bring people of different
worlds together. It's only love
that can make anything to dance 
to its rhythm, even the leaves
in a windless Autumn....

love is a very powerful tool to change the lives of everyone if they allow us to us it and if they are compassionate enough to accept. Teddy good words of wisdom. Hugs
