My brain shakes its
Head in disapproval
Doubt glares at me
Heart shuffles on its feet
Wish I could eat my words
Eyes hide...pained
"What have I done?"
Mind jogs...looking for ways
To control the damage
Lips - brave a smile.
I dare and look into his eyes
A light is lit,
Its warmth spreading over me
His playful smile
Caressing mine
My heart lets out a 'whoop'
'Yes,' whispered the brain.
Walking into the seductive night
Hand in hand
Wrapped in silky love - sweet
With stars showering blessings
Wind whipping a tune
Earth wafts in joy
Universe pats itself,
Another job well done.
What a sweet and nice love story... Love a happy end to a whipping tune from the wind. :-)
