To Kiss Each Morn, Color Outside the Lines

To Kiss Each Morn, Color Outside The Lines Once each day brought, only torturous pain as dull axe, slow cutting against hard grain Dawn cast shadows that this life did so curse making me as a rock, in pauper's purse Yet poetic soul swore to one day heal to again dance well and truest love feel To climb a tall mountain and take new flight light hope's candles, bath in beautiful sight. As a reborn soul, watch flowers soft blow await midnight moon, see its wondrous glow Be a true gift to family and friends gaze above while making sincere amends Hear music that sweetest dreams so oft play humbly bow my head as I kneel to pray Enjoy echoes of morn's first rooster crow beg again a shot from Cupid's love bow. Taste the wine of love and its first soft kiss recall her smile and all of her I miss Walk again forested path to our lake repeat our youthful vows, never forsake Romance that gave treasures and immense joy hold firm to a love, life can not destroy To kiss each morn, color outside the lines stay on faithful path, pay heed to pure signs.

A beautiful hymn of love and life from the singer of darkness. Listen to his words, broken hearts, he knows how to see the light in the dark.

Ah, the master poet writes and shows us what is possible in life and when expressing such with his quill. Truly lovely, Panagiota
