Canticle

For Her...

Look at the beauty in her eyes,

a glow that shines like the sunrise.

Her smile opens up the cloudy skies,

her laughter delights butterflies.

The ocean greets her as she passes by.

Her gorgeous toes leave its mark, saying goodbye.

The gentle breeze through her hair,

she walks elegantly while astonished eyes all stare.

Rosy cheeks cover her face.

A flower child blossoms, kindly accepting embrace.

She is a thorn-less rose without compare.

She is the love my heart will forever endear.

A smile is such a lovely thing especially upon your face;

hiding all the sorrows or simply taking their place.

A kindly spoken word means so much when from you,

it comforts my weary heart or when I’m feeling blue.

A song can make our hearts dance in pretty fast-paced clips

when we hear the melody of our love unconquerable grips.

Words could lift my spirits and sweet compassion find;

put your hand in mine alone and peace will fill my mind.

A smile, a word, a song, a look – seem small little things

but when love sparks an action, what blessings they bring!
