The heat of the sun allows the bud to unfold <br />as your love brings to me a radiance untold. <br />From the look in your deepest blue eyes <br />comes hungry heart's screams and cries. <br /> <br />The warmth of your words feeds my soul with desire <br />my mind is open for you to fill me as with a raging fire. <br />I thirst so, for the deep love you have stored <br />and kept, and be given to your lover adored. <br /> <br />How I've longed to be pampered and cherished <br />by someone like you – how often I have wished <br />that you'd come into my life and to give me your love, <br />to be your guardian angel and for me to be your dove. <br /> <br />To sway with life's breezes and troubles for us to share <br />the blooms outweigh the weeds in the garden we dare <br />to begin, and to sow the seeds of character and strength, <br />indeed an overwhelming challenge of immeasurable length. <br /> <br />To survive the floods of adversities and the thirst of summer heat <br />is is what tolerance, trust and true love's needs be aimed to meet. <br />To toil through sowing of the seed and richness of harvests reap <br />is the sign of a strong true love that this pure rose seed does seek. <br /> <br />Bruises of tough times adds to the character of the bloom <br />as it grows tall and strong, and shares it's unique perfume. <br />The wondrous world wisps by as the seasons soon come and go <br />and the rose turns from bud to bloom and true beauty does show. <br /> <br />Thank God for the seasons - be as they may for richer or poorer, <br />and for the storm and tempest creatures as they rise, and soar. <br />Thank God for your love and understanding - it heals my heart <br />and allows me to awaken, to live, bloom, love – and a new start. <br /> <br />Colleen Wright.
