‘How fair and how pleasant art thou,
O love, for delights! ’
‘A fountain of gardens,
A well of living waters,
And streams from Lebanon ’

Song of Songs

~ * ~

she’s a breath of air
she’s a moonlit night
she’s a midnight dance
she’s a kiss of light
,

sacred mirror reflecting true
with no lies with no secrets
through a magic mystic glass
you're vivid pure really real

overwhelming charm
unbearable beauty
your blush oh darling
glows in the shade!

vestal fair behind a silken veil!
pristine innocence undefiled
a lover's vow a kiss of life
wedded maiden bride and wife

all my treasures all my riches
hidden garden of delights
with joyful songs i sing

“All my fountains are in thee!”

Had to leave it a voicemail dogbox for me, forgot her birthday. Do you perhaps know if chocolates work? Or easter bunnies? Money?

Cheers Mr Moody

o hell turned out it wasn't her birthday after all. A double wammy no wonder she got so upset.

This poem has such a Pre-Raphaelite feel to it. Such romantic stanzas should be read out loud.

I really enjoyed reading Nolan. You should feel proud.

I should think she will be more impressed by your writing thus than chocolates, but they never come amiss, except with the few who are not chocolate fans! and flowers can say, 'Sorry I forgot!'

I was intrigued by the last quote and found it was from Psalm 87, referring to what we have in God there, but it can be applied thus to the love of a good woman, can't it?! Rhiannon

Yes for sure flowers wilt and chocolate spoils but words can last forever and dedicated to your (eternal) loved. For her and only her and everybody.

Quite right Rhiannon but it is actually Zion. I don't speak so easily, but the verse came at an hour of desperate need. Beautiful is it not? A priceless gift.

See you && Nolan
