Thinking Of The Lily Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Two hearts
Together running
Bring distances
Around near
How deep is
Each dark ocean
When shores
Are everywhere
I am always thinking
Of the lily
How blossom
Blooms will go
How love can be
Ordinarily silly
Never showing feelings
Or know

I meet her
Only just yesterday
And I knew
What it felt then
There are no words
To think or say
When we tomorrow
Meet again,
For love it was
At very first sight
That melted
All the icy parts away
Now the futures look
So very bright
With no worries
To meet the new day

Two hearts throbbing
And beating
Oh how love
Can mean this much
Somewhere
The world is cheating
But not our compassion
And touch
Meaning so much
Only few hours
Yet the world
Has open so wide
There’s only sunshine
No showers
The shadows of twilight
Now hide

Two hearts
Together running
Bring distances
Around near
How deep is
Each dark ocean
When shores
Are everywhere
