Today I saw a flower cry; its petals alive with dew
There were no grey clouds and the sky was blue yet.......
....this flower was covered in droplets; clear and glistening
I'm sure it was the happiness of nature showing its laughter.
The freshness of this flower made me think of you.......
....I have shed so many of my own tears because you are unwell
Yet through your time of illness your smiling face gives me such happiness
Orchid Lady, like nature; I need you for my existence and well being.
Some writers of poetry are adept at putting their thoughts onto paper
But my words take much thought and are chosen from my heart
The importance of my day lies in the minutes we spend together.......
....minutes that carry more importance than hours to the moments of each day.
As I write, emotions fill my every thinking - you live deep within my soul
Once again I travel in wonder; back to that moment of our meeting.......
....a moment in time when your eyes caught mine and stilled my breathing
Then your hand sought my fingers and a loving peace took away my loneliness.
Now my life has more meaning to it than I could have wished for
Not a day goes by when loneliness is allowed to reach out and capture me
I shall never know how joy fills the lives of other people.......
....all I do know is - my own day starts and ends with you.
