Mari Martin - SECOND CHANCE

My heart remembers the Spring of Love
it's blossoms bright
filling the air with a sweet perfume
that lingers still in my senses.

It was a time of newness
when gentle rains fell
and the earth came alive with Love.
A time of exploring the boundries of my heart.

My days burst forth from the night sky
exploding in wonderous hues
filling the heavens with miriads of color
seen through the eyes of my heart.

My soul sang such sweet music
harmonizing with the world
as it took it's first breath
to fill me with Love's essence.

I remember First Love as it danced with me
to the melodies of two hearts singing.
My body has not forgotten
how a single touch can bring such joy,
how a certain smile
can part the rain clouds,
how it felt to be held in such completeness.

I have walked so many roads that made me grow,
helped me to keep believing,
encouraged me,
tore me down,
and lifted me up again.

Now, as I stand to see another sunrise,
those memories fill me now
as my heart sings once more
and my eyes behold the blossoms of Spring
surrounding me
in the garden that is your Love.

Mari Martin
