    The Thistle(revised)

    The Thistle

    Our thistle of love, forever true
    Many petals to count, for reasons to love you
    If they prick my fingers and make them bleed
    Each drop scrafised makes our love more complete


    Each new blossom that blooms with spring
    Count even the ones yet unseen
    Shows us grace in the many ways our love is renewed
    These thistles of love I give to you, shall never be blue


    The first thistle of love I gave you to start
    Forever pressed in the pocket of my heart
    Each day I count those petals of love times ten
    For all the reasons I have loved you now and back then


    Deep purple hue, our thistles color exposed to you
    Shows the warmth in our hearts forever true
    Share with me all those thistles I've picked those days
    For they show how are love forever embraced


    Forever our thistles shall bloom for the love I feel for you
    Each prick of their thorns shows many ways I've tickled you
    Embrace the faith that our love will always bloom each spring
    As you watch from your heaven above, I shall pick our thistles and sing

    My love for you shall always be true

    A Thistle of love is new to me. This is very real in its presentation of metaphor. Thanx for sharing.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
