I watch a leaf settle down
In a bed of brown.
Vast as a mountain,
my love for you shines through for

Poems
The softest whisper
beckons me closer to you.
I love you, dearest
Learn, listen, love each,
to know, to love each other,
everlasting love.
I walk across sand
And find myself blistering
In the hot, hot heat
