If.
If you visit me when the sea, flat as glass lies quietly
basking in hot summer sunlight
I'll come to you when the grass, flaked with autumn
moon-lace waits some alluring night.
If you call at my door when the moor, cold and raw
molds winter to passion's wild scene
I'll come to you when the woods, belled in blue smell
of spring's heady lust dressed in green.
If you fill my heart yearly through seasonal changes
and share ardent feelings together
I'll come to you when fades young amour to infuse
weathered fore-play with forever

Just simply flows with tenderness - great piece Fay. more than just a worthy read.
Ah thanking you masses dear friend............. glad you enjoyed my take on IF.
If, Rudyard Kipling wrote with the empathetic grace of a liberated lioness's genius: of female intuitiveness - it would sound a lot like this...
a read: riding upon the gentle river of beautiful imagery your words weave, from first - to that last stanza's tug of universal yearning,
of a love outlasting youth's fervent desires, to graduate into those lasting fields of majestic grey devotion,
breath-taking: in its deceptive simplicity
To be mentioned with such a poetic celebrity does me such honour L.B. - - so pleased you enjoyed the imagery in my take on IF....... and indeed I thank you sincerely for the visit and read.
Good write Fay.
My thanks to you for the visit and read dear Orchi.
Well, I simply love this one, not just the emotions it conveys, but the descriptions of the seasons. Those emotions sustained through eternal seasons, bring uplifting hope for everlasting love. Just terrific. High Praise - Phil A.
So glad you enjoyed the addition of seasons in this little tribute to year-by year love and with ways to try and achieve it........... thank you a load for your encouraging comments dear Phil.
P.S. And a big thank you for adding this to your list of favourites my friend.
