So Merrily

she walked so merrily into my heart
twas so very rarely done
our two spirits joined as one
two hearts made into one and rare kind of love begun
twas so very rarely done
what a happiness to behold
two hearts made onto one and rare kind of love begun
saddness and insecurity devoured and shunned
twas so very rarely done
our two spirits joined as one
saddness and insecurity devoured and shunned
she walked so merrily into my heart

Enjoyed the read John. Just got home from a funeral and the couple were married for 71 years. This was two spirits joined as one. God Bless Phyl

O how poetry gives the locked door such a large window to view what most keep hidden ! Fantastic display of a poet jauntily sharing without being... raffish ! I enjoyed this write John ! james

Thanks for reading about Griselda. It was only intended to be funny, John. So many people hide their real age on the Internet! Love, Carolyn

I especially like the third line..Great to meet someone that you feel that the two spirits join as one..Keep the creative pen flowing..I am glad that you saw that my poem was about a out of the body experience..It changed me..I will finish the story later about the second half of the hospital stay...Have a great day filled with creativeness and inspiration..Sara

A wonderful poem, John. It exposes both the joy and sadness in relationships. Hope you enter this one in Jared's contests. Love, Carolyn
