Sowing the Seed of Love

Kindness and love 
flows freely from your joyous being,
Radiating with a luminescence 
bright and pleasing upon my soul

Chasing away the ebbing darkness 
that threatens to engulf me
And denies the seed of my salvation to grow

Cascading words of joy and rapture 
Pour from your lips like a waterfall 
Exciting and refreshing
Washing away the loneliness 
Replenishing my dying pool of contentment. 

Endless rays 
of the mornings bright promise 
Reflect like diamonds in your eyes 
across my emotional wasteland 

Revitalizing the soil 
with new expectations and hope 
So that a new crop 
of pleasing feelings and thoughts
Can take root and flourish within me.

And your gentle hands 
Can reap the bountiful harvest 
That is my love.
