Forever.
So much time have I spent oft wandering!
Seeking for something that is most rare…
Uncommon warmth, perfect beauty even,
And oft I’ve wondered if such pure thing:
Couldst exist and be beyond all compare.
In such a quest, my spirit was often given!
Then I met a beautiful flower, like the ivy,
A maiden whose art so touched my heart!
She was the treasure for which I’d striven.
I knew when I met her that it was destiny,
And I wanted, from her, never to be apart.
Her words and light were unto me graven!
Is this what it is to feel like unto complete?
Is there a garden with flowers this refined!
Nay, my ivy is as unique as she is perfect.
This is the beginning of something sweet…
A future that will be ideal and so sublime!
You are the flower I will love and protect.
Forever.

My heart has sky rocked past the farthest star and the nearest super nova to the vast space filled with galaxies at every twist and turn! The way you had wrote this for me had been the highlight of my entire day! The way you wrote this poem I can sense the love and the emotions of a true mother behind every word and the picture is so beautiful! Out of this world! Maybe to the next but still maybe to the next beyond that! As always, I had fallen in love once again with your work and very please to the poem you had dedicated to me thank you very much!
I am very delighted to see you liked it, sweet Lilly! I penned this for Zoey (the "Ivy" girl in the poem, who is the taller girl in the illustration with me being the shorter girl) and I was very happy when she told me she loved it beyond words to express. Such joy is always best when shared, so I am happy to share such joy here on DUP with all my good friends, fans, and fellow poets and poetesses! :D

I am glad you loved it, and glad too that you find the love I show to be so wonderful! I try to always show love without restriction, without cost, and without any motivation save love itself. Which is a rare thing, I should think, in a world where at times love is not so freely given and earnestly felt. But, I do what I can, in any case! :)
