The Purple Heart

Radiant are the words 
that painted your existance
Shinning are the details
swept with lyrical rhymes
Brightly sewn were intentions
that bless us day and night
A tapestry of beauty
in heart shapes and designs
A glowing presence expressing love
made of it's own light
Hopes that peddle effortlessly
that never wains or tires
Happy and content
circleing it's beautiful fire
Sparks sparkling words of care
Rainbow colours here and there
Stars that twinkle in the night
small white unageable lights
That lights above the perfect night
Just before the perfect day
I like the way 
you decorated my heart
I really can't discribe 
this kind of art
Colours are made to 
dazzle the eyes
But what you've given 
also pleases the blind
Rhyme and rythem
do not account for the deaf
But lives feel those
certian depths
I stand in awe
of your beautiful delights
Close my eyes
and say good night

John, the intensity and flow of your poem strengthen its many messages and convey aching regard for your words. Especially pleasing the blind and rhythm and rhyme and the deaf. All so poetic, master of the art.

Actually Terry you inspired this piece but it went in a different direction. I planned an epic like yours but certain people were demanding romance.
