simple things

a little romance for a summer afternoon

seeing your shadow

through a bubble of light

a chiaroscuro hinting at what might be

i rush to translate you into the language of love

verbs sway on the tree of life=s high branches

nouns slosh over my overfilled plate

i hum a song of change

of viewing things through life=s blurry lens

knowing my emotions are forever genuine

yes, i am certain

from alpha to omega simple things inspire love

'i rush to translate you into the language of love.. '

Can be the scent of... the sound of.. the call of... and the mind and heart sings!

And you - as ever always, have put those brief words into such a warm, sincere yet scintillating place. I've read again, aloud.. and applaud with smiles galore. Beautiful.

yes, not money, not power, just simple things...as the Beatles sang..."money can't buy me love"

and there are so many inspirations, so many little things..

wonderfully romantic poem...
