Written in the Stars

Written in the Stars
 
 
In the springtime when the snow is almost gone
There grow  brilliant crocuses on our front lawn
 
Spring is a time of renewal and of healing
A time to bury those tired, old feelings
 
Those old feelings are just like a bitter seed
That come summer become a garden full of weeds
 
Leave your resentments buried far under the snow
Plant a seed of everlasting love and allow it to grow
 
The winter rose shines from the love within
To pick her in all of her glory would be a sin
 
Love is calling on the crisp April breeze
She whispers our name through the leaves
 
Hope is echoed in the waves of the restless seas
Mother Nature’s gifts put our two hearts at ease
 
The stars are glowing on this perfect night
A blazing falling star what a wondrous sight
 
Hold me tight within your ever loving arms
Shadows of the night won’t bring us any harm
 
Let me feel all of the magic in your kiss
When our lips meet it is ethereal bliss
 
Allow the wind to blow freely through your hair
At this very moment we don’t have a care
 
We now have the North Star guiding us
Won’t you hold my hand in affectionate trust?
 
Why don’t we go home and light a crackling fire
And to our hopes and dreams we will aspire
 
Our story must lay written in the stars above
How else could we explain this heavenly love?
