You Are

You Are

 

You're the tree that stands so tall

You're the artist that paints the wall

With intricate lines in radiant oils

A visionary story full of spoils 

 

You're the perfect cold night breeze

Cooling tempers if you please

Whispering in the silence with refreshing ease

Changing the tides with pleasantries

 

You're the earth so round and sure

Facilitating life in every corridor

Replenishing yourself after every war

You remain unfazed like the ocean floor

 

You're the light that bestows the dawn

Ever glistening for those who mourn

A beacon of hope to be adorned

Smiling down on those forlorn

 

You're the rain that cries a river

Emotionally sensitive but never bitter

Pouring your love on all that withers

An elixir of life to be savoured

 

You're the fire with flames of gold

Mysterious, deadly, when uncontrolled

Warming the heart to gently unfold

A true love, a glory to behold
