Windswept

a simple love poem

art ~ Gary Benfield

Don’t hasten the winds that tenderly tease

and breathe gracefully, as the falling leaves

rain from heaven, as soft as tears wept

 

Let us float carefree, as wildflowers dance

in a warm embrace, with the ambiance

of beauty, forever, in our hearts kept

 

We’ll gather this breeze, this sweet disarray,

only for two, and here we will stay,

together in love and completely windswept

Your graphic displays how it can be, your gentle loving words tell how it is. A calm of loveliness,
... 'the ambience of beauty, forvier, in our hearts kept.. ' Your writing's always swept the path clean before your words walk it.

That is how love should be, the "windswept" beauty of abandonment and yet a gathering of all that was and will be, beautiful...

A very heartfelt and genuinely sentimental work of written art. The picture you chose also signifies what it truly means to be windswept away along with your significant other. Great work Julie. A well written poetic masterpiece. :)
