Seven Lines

I have Just SEVEN lines to say what I need to say as SIX comes quickly falling with Autumn leaves FIVE does follow as white clouds tumble free as FOUR falls gently I finally find the grace I need to confess the THREE words that lay heavy upon my sleeve to find a place where TWO souls drift in song and solemn praise as ONE in dulcet murmurs, to say the words "I love Thee" ___________________

Pure Poetry, Over the TOP! You only needed 1 line to say what was in your heart, but all that feeling leading up never do without. Gratz! ~ECMc
