Could I Stay Away?
Should I stay away
from love's garden?
The garden of the
heart and soul
Was the world
spinning around so fast,
A garden of love
flourishes from deep within
Love has a living fostered
metamorphosis
In the silence of
the garden of happiness,
Will you feel the
rhythm of the heartbeat of my soul?
Speaking softly I
sigh to you ...
" You are my
home "

Could I Stay Away?
Should I stay away
from love's garden?
Could I even if I
tried?
Understanding you
felt you don’t know me,
came as an
unexpected surprise
Knowing our souls
touched as one
gave me a sheer
force of will to survive …
The garden of the
heart and soul
needs a caring
gardener’s passionate touch
Suspended in a moment
shyly withdrawn and wondering;
Lamenting passing
season’s lessons of trust
Tender loving
caretakers breathe in every breath knowing
the heart needs a
home ...
Was the world
spinning around so fast,
I missed the
season's fleeting time?
Seasons can change
so quickly,
patience did not
even notice when or why,
suddenly realizing
you're constantly swimming
alone against the
tide ...
A garden of love
flourishes from deep within
the essence of the
heart of soul
Never afraid of
making love,
with the earth
beneath our nails
The desires thriving
within our passion
are harmonious enraptured
dreams left untold ...
Love has a living fostered
metamorphosis
You never see the
warning signs
Budding spirits
blossom as one
through compassionate
nurturing,
deeply rooting
what naturally
blooms over needed
time ...
In the silence of
the garden of happiness,
embrace the peace
that’s found within
Knowing if I stay
here forever…
won’t you listen
to my heart's song ?
How will you know?
When you hear my
voice calling in the wind?
Will you feel the
rhythm of the heartbeat of my soul?
Should I stay away
from love's sacred garden?
Could I even if I
tried?
Please whisper in
the gentle breeze
your heart of
gold's reply ~
Speaking softly I
sigh to you ...
" You are my
home "
