Who am I that I am favoured in your eyes?
Your chosen lily in this field of souls,
Hand crafted from dust and formed a jewel.
To share your radiance and artistic brilliance.
To dazzle in your majestic gardens of flourishing flowers.
The elegance of your fingers refines my heart.
I bloom by your covering shade,
And shine by your life giving light.
To be preferred more then angels,
Us men of weaker charm.
My undeserving arms hold this grace of a heavens creed,
That waters these seeds and refreshes our spirit,
Our hearts for our fellow man.
Let this garden grow into a family,
With the beauty of a rose.
For eternity and forever more,
My soul to rest in your field of souls.

Brillance in this write.....
of course I speak femininely.
and wise it was to write of the beauty of love and
what an inspiring lovely poem about mankind's love for
their tender women.
I agree...we find splendor in being loved, in our families, and in the hearts and words of our soulful
men!
Thankyou, very kindly this has fed my soul wisely!

Elegantly Rendered!
We are so unworthy, and yet possess a wildness of choice that makes our worship desirable, honest, and free. We are torn between two masters, suspended between life and death, and we feel it with each passing breath! To be found in that field of souls thriving before our source would be a bliss unimaginable. Hope to see you there. Aloha.
