He is the wisdom
Spanning heights
Of coniferous kingdoms
Like the groves of Devonshire.

He is beauty unhindered As is the first sign of Spring That tiptoes across the moss-laden floor Of a Winter's morn.

Oh His voice is gallant song Much like the winds That gracefully challenge The dove of Heaven's wing.

His eyes speak truths Like those of the Tend'rest of brown velvet fawn; New to night's cloaked orb.

His heart is grand Like the gently outreached Depths of river and sea; It is there he beckons me.

I heed the desire to saunter through the groves, And embrace the signs of Spring: Ah, even the ephemeral heart would take flight Upon that dove's wing! Blanketing itself In the brown velvet - unremoved upon entering The watery depths.

In his arms I would relinquish myself To such ambrosial lips tempting: It is because of he that I know peace! And of we that my soul is rejoicing.
