Forever So Long
Forever so long
As warmth shows on rosy cheeks
and heart beats in rhyme,
Springs bloom in autumn
the nature teaches mime,
Red running in veins deepens
as fierce longings burn,
Etched abysmal in souls
memories treasured in time return.

Last line chosen from poem below...
Entwined
In pure love entwined
the knittings of a mother,
Through icy cold winds
embrace child's subtle being,
As warmth shows on rosy cheeks.
