In my soul's pasture



When I first saw you
My sad heart thundered applause
Your eyes said it all

I watched your deft hands
As you patiently worked away
Then glanced up at me

You have springtime
For me winter winds blow cold
Sadness I must bear

My long lonely nights
Would surely be satisfied
By your gentle touch

But that’s not for me
I dream of what could have been
In my soul's pasture

  1. It leant its self to dream - our own soul's pasture - maybe it also lends itself to as sense of loss and longing...and vulnerability as tender as that little deer..

  2. Hmmm...my soul's pasture. What an interesting concept. Good job on this.
