Yet

  • inspired by the first day I met my wife in 1987…

     

    Yet

    ~

    had she not appeared in that clearing
    so lost

    had she not crossed my threshold
    on that september day

    had not her voice
    drifted like silk on a summer breeze
    to wrap sheer and sweet
    around my heart

    had not I been drawn
    like a bloom to the morning sun

    had not I been captivated
    as a hummingbird
    by a drop of nectar
    crystal on a velvet petal

    had not my love come down
    soft as a rolling mountain meadow

    had not this dream been born

    had not my life begun again

    1. Had not the comment button appeared, my response about the beautiful essence of this writing would never have appeared, Rob. Thank you for sharing.

    2. beautiful, and loving.. I think that verse where you compare her voice, that is quite eloquent, and elegant too, Rob. It is so, endearing!
