"Autumn Leaf Piles"

Years in making
Friendship creating
Inspiration given
Challenge proven

He shown through
Sparkle from you
Not the sunlit shine
The from within kind

Grace in stature
Love of nature
Flare of style
Leading all the while

Knowing to step in
Not just because of Him
Overcoming fear to be close
Giving of yourself

"Dappled Hearts"

Praise be for Coupled-color King
Celestial love-Harlequin
Soul forever entwined
Butterfly Queen remains to King

Stones of color
Collaboratively inspired
Creative affection expressed
Submission with one another
Letting go, you didn't

Spiritual balance
Reflecting necessary
Seasons of life
Emotional waves
Love Illuminated

Trails leading between
Twilight lit clean
Spicey scented canopies
Heart held colored groves
Or freshly made green

Looking at the Moon
Dusk filtered lit paths
Then dawn awaits
Leading you back

A love from past still present
No matter the stone engravings
Nor online quotes or photo plays
Promises or games of jealousy
Three loves-one queen
Still reigns
