Strive To Drive To Your Priceless Goal

Intentions and innermost desires from minds sparkle in your eyes Surface simulations and aberrations fly off sugar-coated tongues Where cavalcades of pesky pies and their ties to lies Assail love clung, flung, hung, slung, strung, stung in beakers with bungs So tight room to maneuver shrinks In the wake of a vicious vice That blinks, sinks, winks and stinks To disseminate lice and the spice whose price Though exploitative can’t diminish the ardour Love draws from her innermost fortitude Enjoining minds to dismiss the kiss of murder Reason and its prison inject into the attitude You elect to reflect as you read from a suitor’s mind Brushing aside subtle signals erroneously sized As nuances in love stances that elude partners too blind To see, too obdurate to like, too far gone, too surprised To acknowledge the supple swim of love At the right time, in the right heart, at the right place Where love flown on the nimble wing of a white dove Conveys a message of affection not on a surface But deep into nooks and crannies Where love seeds fall on fertile soil To bless, caress and grace honeys Ready and pliant enough to oil The love entreprise primed to grow From a seedling into a sapling Until love blossoms into fruits whose glow and dough Rise into the darling For whom you crave Heart and soul As you dare and brave Tough odds to attain your priceless goal.

Hi John.. Good morning. I'm in the mountains with my dog (Bo) sipping on your wonderful write and a hot cup of Joe. Nature is waking up and you're bringing a delight to my senses!
