Reflections
Of My Heart's Contentment
Softly, now I find this place,
This place of my heart's contentment.
Gentle world this,
place of misty shadows,
Of sweet whispers sailing in the clear autumn air.
Arms outstretched, I reach to catch them,
whispers so elusive,
seemingly floating beyond my grasp,
finger tips brush against the magic,
The magic that is all you are.
World of dreams and forever visions,
Of endless smiles and laughter,
Brightened by the nearness of your soul's smile.
That this, the dance of our hearts,
knows such merriment and joy,
seems almost surreal,
Unfathomable in its love!
Softly now I lay my heart here,
This place of my heart's contentment.
Knowing not what the next moment shall bring,
But safe in the knowledge of now,
Warmed by the words spoken,
But blessed by those unsaid.
