She Called Me Darling
She called me darling
And I felt my feet grow roots
While the ground swelled to meet me
She called me darling
As the wind combed the briers in my hair
And strange squirrels anointed me with nests
She called me darling
And the sun painted my cheeks rouge
While the sea spilled from my eyes
She called me darling
As my heart thundered in the distant sky
And the earth shook from its efforts
She called me darling
And a balloon in my chest swelled
Bursting forth with barely contained joy

Freeish Verse.
Just a little sweet poem to try and overcome my writer's block.
