The poet, in 2009, wrote this wistful wish for a lover.
-----
like a blossom in the summer's wind
I see you as something pure and passionate
warm and woven into the tapestry of senses,
forswearing the defenses of illusion.
I can see you, feel you, smell your essence
in the presence in the creation,
as a charity to me from a smiling God
who sees the beauty in what you are
and were and will be, all as part of all.
you are beautiful and precious, every petal.
every tracery of colour and scent and touch.
like a blossom in the summer's wind.
