Beloved

Sweet smell and fragnance still remembered
touchy laughter and nearness so close
the lofts of delight and future visioning
my lovely beloved had me once captured

In the beginning words were strangers
and so was the presence of you also
on the day of the birth of our savior
the birth of us together also it was

That day has been etched into the memory
into the deepest corners of the heart
the soul has remained touched since then
forever till eternity to remain there

A night of merry winter it was
when two creatures of God walked by
sharing things meant to be shared
beginning a relation never to end

The lonesome road along the corner
the lush green lighted park nearby
a word of promise was said
a heart full of love was laid

Well wishes and goodbye were on the lips
of the beloved and the lover both
future left to the guidance of fate
Life surrendered to the plans of God.
