What Sunshine Is To Flowers
"What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable."
Joseph Addison
The sun rests high in a sapphire sky
blanketing our blooms with care
smile with me on these virgin pure sands
where serenity filters our air
breathe deep and let it all in
my touch caress your skin
thoughts so sincere
releasing your fear
here's where heartbeats begin
simple but pleasant we please
our kindness offered with ease
your hand in mine
life so divine
love lives in every breeze

Fine work, JusTim. I love the sentiment, rhyming and structure. The way you expand on that quote is amazing.

Your romantic pen is incredible. When you sweep smooth across the page, it warms the soul.
