Walk In the Park

Ruby winds were breezing about, Graceful ducks were crossing my path Slowly, slowly in a purposeful walk Curious of a cute fawn scurrying along; There I paused, watching robins dance Twittering and twitting songs of joy In harmony with people ambling by. Up there upon the blue garb of eventide Sun was sketching a spectrum on arc As evening was donning sienna brown; In yellow rose-blooms some stilled awed Some stayed glued to pink-lotus pond Gazing beauty of gracile white swans. When orange-glow invoked amber vibes I lingered at your gazebo a millionth time Charmed by echoes of sensuous revelry In whispers of hints from coral peonies Lilting in your garden of flaming red lilies Pulsing your heart’s passionate greetings As fervor of the night chased our dreams. Whispering to me, “meet me tomorrow” You divulged to stars how sweet love was Crooning its praises quite a long time ago-- Before we met for tea on your porch, Strolls in the park, rise of purple dawns, Before you waltzed desires of romance, Before you owned the beats of my heart.

Ambling through the park seeing myriad scenes of birds twittering, roses in bloom, fawn scurrying, the evening sun sketching multi colored designs in the sienna sky with your love divulging to the stars how sweet love is....what a heavenly experience have shared with the readers...
