The Web We Weave For Love

Staring out of my window panes at open fields and weather vanes on my tractor seat, a woman's glove? and I'm thinking about the web we weave for love Freshly tilled garden and the smell of dirt Somewhere a farm girl that wants to flirt and a pigeon soars or is it a dove? and I'm thinking about the web we weave for love Tapping the glass makes a shepherd alert and he's roaming around my field of dirt only he knows what I'm dreaming of and that I'm thinking about the web we weave for love Things I don't know, but one thing's for sure a bed of roses I've grown for her Outside a flag is waving above and I'm thinking about the web we weave for love Through the window pane a windmill turns and inside my heart a fire burns Somewhere a girl that I'm dreaming of and that I'm thinking about the web we will weave for love She and I will weave that web

I love how you did this poem, a clever, catchy and dramatic delivery of loveliness. This is a gem, unique and enchanting. Great closing line, too. You are the entire package, wherever you are, you are that. All the best and be blessed ... CayCay

Very lovely lyrics, Rhoda. This poem appeals to me for obvious reasons...both the farm and windmill are part of my distant youth. Regards // paul

Paul...I remember you saying about how you grew up on a farm and I think that is awesome that we have that in common. Maybe that is why I felt comfortable early on asking for your help with my writing. Maybe farm folks have a certain aura of approachability.

Hi! Thanks, John. Sorry I have been absent. Trying to get my other accounts up and running so that maybe, just maybe, when my novel is finished, some may recognize my name. (Cheers). I appreciate your support.
