A Love Divine

Love, brought to me by a stranger, Like the tide, washed over my heart, Waves of contentment swept my shore, A reef of darkness, ripped apart A stranger, unknown to my eyes, Became a mirror of my heart, Tenderly reflecting my love..... Causing a strange yearning to start He brought with him a sweet bouquet, Flowery words he knew would delight This lonely heart seeking beauty In my world of darkness and blight He sang a song, and it pleased me, Dispelling my nights of despair, My heart swooned hearing such sweet words.... The angels might call it a prayer He offered me his loving heart, Tenderly, he joined it to mine, An angel then kissed my forehead As witness to a love divine He brought life to my dying dreams, And soon, a wounded heart was healed, I caught a glimpse of Paradise..... When I thought Eden's gates were sealed!
