As the leaves blow on


As the leaves blow on by,

I sit here and wait.

I wait for your loving embrace.

The wind whispers in my ears,

Yet I send a butterfly in response.

 

We have been set free.

 

The mountains have moved,

And the doves have cooed.

It is time to return to the holy land.

I walk with my heart in hand.

The extraction of thoughts must be produced eloquently into words. For those afraid to speak, speak of the best.
