Your Meadow In My Mind

dbremner

How could it be

I now wondered

That here in winters depth

My thoughts could turn to spring-time

 

I'll tell you, love

How it could be

For it were thoughts of you

Alone among the flowers

 

There in the warmth

Gift of the sun

That gives the flowers life

As your love gives life to me

 

Which is fairer?

I dared to guess

Well lover, it is you

More fragrant than those flowers

 

That fill my mind

As if I see

Them floating on the breeze

Like dancing Red Admirals

 

So as you work

In the meadow

When spring-time comes again

I pray that your thoughts will turn

 

To what will be

With you and I

In the spring-time of love

Now sown within the meadow.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Someone told me very recently that they sometimes work in their flower garden. I think hearing that put this poem in to my head.

    Oh, but this is a VERY SWEET poem! How I do love it!!! And you know, two months from today is....Valentines Day...ah, this is a delightful reminder for lovers. And it is yesterday's metre of 4,4,6,7! The images of the sun-bathed meadow with its light spring colours and flowers makes it such a lovely poem of sweet love...as well as the reminder that "in spring, a young man's heart turns to love." Excellent love poem!!!
