Lovely Things For Darren

Lovely little songbird
   looking in my window
   smiles in your eyes
   warm thoughts flowing
   with marmalade skies

Pretty little songbird
    singing subdued kisses
    come make me whole
    be my one and only
    peek into my soul

Time ticking on the wall
    starlit strummed melody
    daydream dancing again
    float alone in ecstasy 
    along with my gifted pen

Night time serenade
    lift me up with the starshine
    sprinkle tiny gifts of glee
    love spread so sweetly
    come drift away with me

I am left with no choice, other than to give this A7, a ten, a 100 out of 100, a 100%, a gold medal, and whatever other accolades one can think of! Such kindness of heart, refreshing, and joyous.

This was really nice Tim. I was going to say Darren will love it but I can see he has already told you that. :)
