I TRIED TO LIVE WITHIN THE NOW,
AND FREE MY HEART OF BONDAGE.
I TRIED LEARNING LOVE KNOW-HOW,
BUT TIDES HELPED NOT THE SALVAGE.
I STRUGGLED WITH MIXED EMOTIONS,
AND OFT PRAYED FOR A RAY OF HOPE.
LOOKING FOR LOVE WITH DEVOTION,
I LEARNED TO PERSEVERE AND COPE.
I SENSED LIFE'S SORROWFUL PITFALLS,
THE HEART WITH YOUR LOVE ENFLAME.
I FELT A BRUSH OF REVIVING OF SOULS,
PENETRATING DEEP WITH DUE CLAIM.
I HUDDLED WITH YOUR RARE BEAUTY,
DIVINE WHIRL OF THE ARTIST PALETTE.
I GRAPPLED IN AWE, HOMAGE AND DUTY,
DWELLING THE HEART NOT THE WALLET.
YOU CONSOLED MY EYES FULL OF TEARS,
THROUGH LIFE'S SHADES AND SHADOWS.
YOU GUIDED ME GENTLY OVER THE YEARS,
TO YOUR LOVE SWEET GREEN MEADOWS.
THE GREAT MASTERS OF CREATIVE ART,
IN YOUR PRAISE FAILED AND STUMBLED.
LEST THEY'VE LIVED THE BROKEN HEART,
OF A LOVER, IN YOUR BEAUTY, BE HUMBLED.
