Nurturing Nature and Love

How I long for your GOLD locks to frolic in the breeze, And to flow to and fro, endlessly trying to me tease, And your incredible, smooth, transparent COMPLEXION Rosy from the glow of an ETERNAL blue HEAVEN, Home of our God Almighty, our Saviour and even Angels, rivers that flow through the flaxen filled fields, A LEASE between them of unspeakable treasures, Unthinkable, unbelievable, immeasurable pleasures That own nature, and nurture POSSESION of TEMPERATE Rose hedges UNTRIMMED, growing wild, soaking up sun Not looking for SHADE, BUDS that flower, comparable to none, How much longer, my lips to linger on yours forever!

An explosion of emotions..a summer love song intertwined with Shakespeare's chosen words..excellent rendering Jennifer evocative of both summer and romance. You easily incorporated those uncooperative words into a beautiful piece..much enjoyed. All the best for a superb win, my friend.
