The little girl she'd wanted to be, all ragdoll and laughing
Patterned with the flowers Mother Nature brought for us to adore
She lay in her soft cotton summer dress
So open and happy and content, they were her dream days
She shimmered with the long vivid green grasses
And enough butterflies rested nearby drowsy in their patch of sun
And benevolent Bumble Bees busy as a bee in their social antics passed overhead
And crickets unseen and hopeful made clicking overtures to their hopping mad mate
Her eyes are Seas of Tropics and windows so true in depth is the colour blue
The flow of thick brown hair long warming the small of her back
With half-closed eyes I reach for the statue of an angel
All are flowing like Nature's trust in her wisdom
Her smile flattered me - I loved her rose-red lips
Here on this field is our destiny
I had no need to worry
She welcomed me with arms outstretched so slender
She wanted me
I happily lay with my Southern Belle in Nature's Cradle
And in that afternoon we knew we had found what we had
Lost so long ago

Certainly, love is truly blind, for no woman possesses such beauty, as written in this exquisite piece of work.One has to praise the brillance of the writer, AJ Buttle in his beautiful execution of his story, leaving the reader feeling that they, too, have stepped into the sweetness of this love story. Romantic,Tender,Overflowing with feeling. A truly lucky woman for whom this was written.
