Lovelace



Lovelace


Love wraps arms of finest lace
about bare shoulders lacking grace
Love thinks not of it's good name
nor cares if it is sullied or shamed
Love only sees a heart bereaved
Love is not famed, 
still fills the need


I stumbled on this poem I wrote last year and when all else fails at conveying a message my heart has been longing to write, this poem says it all...

I pray I will wear this lovelace always...and find shoulders in need of its delicate drape.

    Joye,

    What a beautiful poem that has found it's way back to your heart once again. Isn't it funny that God does amazing things like that?

    Thanks for stopping by my blog today and posting beautiful sentiments to motivate me to continue.

    Hopefully you like what you see and decide to stay a spell!
