& Love Was Found Poem by Rebekah Ruby

She wanders through the cold dark night.
In search of a warm loving light.
As she wanders aimlessly through the trees
She feels the cool gentle breeze.
In fear she begins to cry out.
Hoping someone will hear her shout.
As tears fall from her eyes.
Then someone gently hushes her cries.
The stranger takes her hand.
& leads her safely through the darkened land.
She try's to speak to him & ask him his name.
But he remains silent just the same.
In the clearing where now they stand.
He try's to let go, but she holds tight to his hand.
'Please kind sir, I must know who you are,
& why have you taken me so far? '
Out from behind the clouds, the moonlight piers out & shines.
To show the strangers face as if it were a sign.
Now, at last he speaks:
'My Lady Fair, I have watched you for many years, as others hurt you & wouldn't save you or be your guide.
I watched to see if they would help you, but they were all full of pride.
Tonight I saw you alone & full of fears.
I wanted to help you & to dry your tears.'
She stood there speechless at how much he cared, this handsome redheaded stranger.
Who wanted to save her & keep her from all danger.
He spoke again:
'From the I laid eyes on you, you were the most beautiful women that I ever did see.
I wanted you to be free... I wanted to be with me.'
On her face a smile began to grow.
She felt her heart mending & the sadness started to go.
Before she could say a thing.
The words he said to her were most shocking.
He said:
'Little One, I love you.'
It took her breath away.
& then out of you heart her lips began to say:
I love you too, My Ginger.'
They smiled at each other.
As she hold tight to him, now they wander the woods together.
They are no longer afraid or alone.
For one rescued the other & then their love was shone.
Now through the land they are forever known.
