Softly RomanticA Poem by Deborah ShepardSoftly Romantic table lamp lit
Lilacs, and roses strewn about the porch
Awaiting his arrival home
Soft sage burns with rosemary in the teapots, each soft
I am alone
Softly butterflies seem to mingle my thoughts
I lay back in sunshine till the etched lavender rain pours
Twinkling fairies appeared in the wing pons' my lamp
Asking when I will return home
Nothing is more beautiful than mother earths petals gown
But as a mortal I shall be leaving if he doesn't return by dawn
My lovers paradise in each mortals dress
I will surly miss
He found me what maybe a year ago spring
I was alone in the roses well, I believe
He smiled I needed that in my life
I am now his fairy wife
But a price I had to pay for such deed
The lore spoke only one year no more
So tonight I see his eyes coming to mine
I shall be gone by morning he will find
I shall never love another mortal such as he
My heart is broken in pieces mended by the tree
I will a token a small tear to keep inside
My darling each breathe as you take I will never lose sight
