Heard the shout of the shattered heart of stone,
In the duration of a moment in time.
In the presence of a beauty, it had never known,
So consoling, so sublime.
Heard the unchained ask with upturned eye,
Is there ever a reason why?
Her heart enfold the likes of I,
For this life, and the tears gone by?
Heard the crack of the dam that cannot contain,
The aweful weight of tears.
Cried throughout the years in vain,
For the hope that disappears.
Saw the bended knee, that chose to kneel,
That love forever tie.
To a beauty that becomes so real,
In spite of the tears gone by.
Heard the joyful things, all of nature sings,
When at last love finds its way.
And the sweet sadness celabration brings,
On a very blessed day.
All these things be, from you to me,
To hold until I die.
I'll rest in your tranquility,
And forget the tears gone by.
Yes I heard the shout, And I have no doubt,
That the stone is finally breached.
And the lonly man that walked without,
Has been absolutely reached.
I will turn my head, to you instead,
And my heart will softly sigh.
For the garden, where your love has lead,
My soul, since the tears gone by.

Absolutely Beautiful!
You have played the piano with this poem, you have also danced, and
sung songs so tenderly. You are a master repo, and I love you dearly. Keep giving of yourself, you were sent by the Greatest writer of all times, and He smiles at your accomplishments!
"And all these things be, from you to me to hold until I die. I'll rest in your tranquility, and forget the tears gone by".

Utterly beatiful, and I want to play the piano as well...

I apologize greatly for the lack of coherency in this comment,
I had surgery today and am rather tipsy and whatnot from the pain medication. Just wanted to drop a line and read something new.
Take care, all my love.
