Loves First Embrace

Born a farmer,
his hands so tough,
he built a home,
of lumber so rough.
A bride he yearned for,
someone soft to hold,
that special one,
on nights so cold.
He bowed his head,
and said a prayer,
please send me an angel,
with skin so fair.
Then one day,
his request came true,
a knock on his door,
she had eyes so blue.
I'm new in these parts,
she said with a grin,
he opened his door,
and invited her in.
A courtship began,
they laughed so much,
and every day,
he grew fonder of her touch.
The very next day,
when she walked through his door,
he was down on his knees,
asking, please be mine forever more.
Miracles do happen,
but we first must believe,
give it to Jesus,
and He will lead.
