Nerds Wafting In Breezes

Upon the breeze of fate came love my way
To fragrance every flower with scents of you. 
Forever, now, your sweetness brightens day.

As morning light seeks sparkles on the dew
A quiet wind bestirs the bees and birds.
Oh, shiver in my soul, your eyes so blue.

This glory in my heart defies all words.
Wild passions raging like a hurricane.
And who, but God could bind two lovelorn nerds?

Our wits upon the earth saw true love feigned.
Hope fell, like broken branches in life's storm.
For twain, had weathered gales of life with pain. 

Upon that winds of fate two lives transform.
Embraced by common dreams our love ignites.
Together wafting breezes, love freeform.

Thanks for reading me and taking time to comment...and for the encouragement to keep on writing. I hope I do. (I recently had a dry spell that lasted a couple of months with very little successful writing..so thanks again.) Big Smiles, Dane Ann

We are all nerds, perhaps, lovelorn nerds are the blessed of all the nerds.... what a lovely look at love, and how it does transform each one of us. Love this insight!

Thanks, Carrie. Love does transform us. Human love and the love of God, each in their wise ways. Happy Days to you. Big Smiles, Dane Ann
