Growing Love With You

Petals of roses fall softly in the

warm breeze of my thoughts of you.

Branches of leafy green spread

endlessly reaching out with life

Deep set roots ground our love firmly

Growing with you is prosperous,

yielding lush fruit quenching soul.

If you have it in you to love me, lay

open your heart and let me come in.

If you have it in you to forgive my

distant ways, turn and take my hand.

Within you are the seeds of growth,

plant with me the fruit of hope.

In spring time of our love we start

a new, pulling weeds as we grow.

The summer of our life blossoms with

fruitfulness of our work if we are

dedicated to our goal. Be with me

this day, and all days ahead,

wintering warmly in our garden of

love.
