When you awaken

To a love you never knew

There I will be…

***

When you stand strong

For those who cannot for themselves

There I will be…

***

When you lift a little one

So she can touch the stars

There I will be…

***

When you search forever

In the worldly knot of time

There I will be…

***

When your branches entwine and twirl

In reaching for the brilliant sky

There I will be…

***

When your treasured moments

Burn bright with fiery promise

There I will be…

***

When your winding path

Feels far too far and far too long

There I will be…

***

When you are softly resting

Amidst the flutter of tender wings

There I will be…

***

When your soulful heart

Journeys atop the crested ocean waves

There I will be…

***

When you pause in wonder

To gaze at small things never seen

There i will be…

***

When your thoughts are lost

In the honeyed strings of a pleasing violin

There I will be…

***

When your fingers dance

In time with a graceful arch

There I will be…

***

When you find at last

Your golden grail

There i will be…

Always,

The loving wine within your cup…

****

  10. it’s the Savior or Creator speaking like your other poem i went oodles over. i could well be wrong but that’s how it sounds to me. another beautiful poem with such a personal touch.

    the lake and sky is beautiful too with the trees only adding to the beauty. you must hear voices out there in the quiet.

  11. that is the amazing thing about the internet. you can be out in some quiet corner all alone most of the time and still move the world with the thoughts you are given. it gets into other people’s consciousness and spreads like ripples on water that the wind even moves. after a while it is not about where it started but where it is going and the far reaching affect it is having. listening to the quiet and sharing what you hear has more power than ever.

  14. I read this beautiful poem on Friday evening Suzanne but I didn’t think I would be able to give a good enough comment that matchs the content of the poem. I’m still not sure after reading it several times. It feels like the most beautiful words were taken already, they’re in the poem. Here is just an attempt.
    The title of the poem caught me and it prepared me for something lovely to read and it was then confirmed. It was that loving feeling throughout the poem. The lovely picture reminds of the novel “The Bridges of Madison County” by Robert James Waller. The love expressed between each paragraph reminds me of the deep passion existed between Francesca and Robert. Love is such a beautiful thing that it hurts. Take care Suzanne ❤️😊

      1. I’m reading right now Suzanne 😊 I’m reading very very slowly so I can catch every moment. I’m absorbing every word, and every emotion. I read the translated version in Chinese many years ago, it made huge impression. But it’s not until now that I’m reading the original English version. I love it. The image on the cover resembles the photo on the top of the post. The atmosphere, and the feeling. “Loving you…” is beautiful, tender and moving. Take care Suzanne 😊❤️

      2. Oh, nice. Im tempted to reread it myself. I recall the sweetness between them. The sort of deep and abiding love that one keeps always in their heart. Enjoy. Take care Isabelle 😊❤️
