The Path
We walk together hand in hand, arm in arm,
Walking, talking, laughing.
Hearts touching, souls sharing, for the moment
joined as one.
The wooded path we walk has come alive with Spring;
The sun is shining, flowers are blooming....the
birds.....
Singing a raphsody just for you and me.
On we walk, reveling in nature's display of color
and sound,
The forest is thick, so full of life, we loose
all track of time.
Up ahead the pathway forks, one going left, one
going right;
We stop and look, then as one, we take the left
and continue on.
We walk on, oblivious to all but nature, unaware
our hearts now
beat as one.
Through beauty, peace and serenity, we now commune
in quiet
harmony.
The path breaks into an open field,
An island of clover and grass, surrounded by
trees on all sides.
Butterflies and thistledown are floating on the
breeze.....
Bathed in the colors of the setting sun.....magic
is in the air.
Hand in hand, we walk to the center of this newfound
paradise
And face to face, we embrace; the butterflies
doing a sensual aerial
dance.
Day's last light gives way to evening's mysterious
dusk....
Fireflies replace butterflies---earthly stars
flitting here and there.
The magic transports us to a different plane,
void of the world
outside.
I am aware only of the luminous depths of your
eyes, the feel of your
skin, the beating of your heart.
Your awareness centers only on my touch, my kiss,
my eyes...looking
into yours.
We slowly sink into a lush bed of clover....passion
under nature's
canopy.
Dusk is gone, darkness has descended, a full moon
illuminating the
night.
We are together completely at last, we hold,
touch, embrace, caress.
We talk and laugh, reveling in our new found
passion.
As the sun climbs its way into the eastern sky,
We join hands and walk back up the path wondering.....
Was it real? Was it a dream? .........or
just maybe, was it magic?
