Forget-Me-Not

Forget-me-not
I tell thee true
for all my dreams
encircle you!

My Darling Dove
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Coo, Coo
my darling dove
Come fly with me
today
to heavenly heights
of lasting
love
I plead – I ask – I pray?
We’ll rest
midst blossomed branches
gazing into
each other’s
eyes
And without
a flutter
of a feather
we’ll soar
as blissful groom
and
bride!

How beautiful you are, my darling!
Oh, how beautiful!
Your eyes are doves.
Song of Songs 1:15

I was called outside by the cooing of a lover for his bride. They were both in our ancient cherry tree. She was hiding behind a branch – but he was pleased to pose!

Loyal Robin Nonet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Robins teach us that loyalty rules
They aren’t the bird-brains: Nor the fools…
Some can’t hold a vow as long
Perhaps we should sing songs
and build together
our nest above
persevere
daily
Love!

Every spring and summer I watch as selflessness is displayed among the red-breasted simpletons. Impressive! I know that I need the grace of the One who sees the feathered ones fall… yet there are some relationships that are better not to continue.

Triumphal Haiku

Love lightens the load
foster faith with your feathers
rise above trials!

I was taking pictures of flowers in my garden when I looked up to see an always soothing sight…
