Blessed

It was a bright summer day In a green glen far away. There among the tall yellow wild flowers You had come my way on a tall brown bay. You were on a quest and the day was blessed. I felt my heart skip a beat and my cheeks were flushed as I blushed. Suddenly a cool breeze blew and I knew when you bowed low God had blown me to you. And as sunbeams shone through trees the day was blessed. You, my warrior; me, your queen. There was no one in between. You found me there in that pastoral scene. You conquered my heart, my body and soul. You became my king and the day was blessed. Now here on this moonlit night Once again, my heart takes flight. Beside the campfire in this magical place You kiss my lips, I touch your handsome face. On this sacred ground we’ll rest in peace And be forever blessed.

What is Real my dear Carole and what is Fantasy? Certain chemicals that stimulate our neurotransmitters.....

Thank you, Pashan g, but it is pure fantasy. No king or queen. They exist totally in my imagination.

Very romantic and dreamy poem, Carole. Love this line ... You, my warrior; me, your queen. There was no one in between. You found me there in that pastoral scene. Lovely poetry. Love and peace always.

Love is a main ingredient of inspiration, and I like where this theme took you Carole. Your poetic artistry of words and lines coming together beautifully and eloquently with just the right touch of 'old world charm' to it, ending on a beautiful note. A winning entry, not that you need it but good luck in the contest. This is definitely a fave...Maria xxx
