Life's Magic Moments. To my Dear, Dearer, Dearest Friend, Nellieanna Hay.

I heard the cry; felt the heartbeat

Of the new-born beating,

And was filled with deep reverence for my Queen.

Transfixed by the magical excellence of the Taj Mahal;

I felt enraptured by Love’s greatness in man.

I saw the Light of Beauty, shining

In the shadows of the downtrodden,

And I wept with Delight,

For the unfathomable mystery of my Beloved.

Magic Moments, like the enchanting symmetry

Of a butterfly, balancing daintily on petunias,

So delicate… so mysteriously charming,

Like the peerless radiance of the rainbow.

They linger in our memory like nerve fibres –

Blueprints of a generation handed down;

Endorsing the soft glowing fragrance of a smile –

When I think of the soulfulness,

The quintessential charisma of Thy sweet gaze,

I feel the eloquence of Your grandeur,

Deep inside my burning Heart.

Thy sweet glance becomes a vibrant prayer,

Blessed and made sacred, by the Light of The Beyond.

It is then I hear the minstrels sing from Heaven,

And my Soul stirs, inspired by the sanctity,

Of Your splendour, blending in my Core.

I heard the cry; felt the heartbeat

Of the new-born beating,

And was filled with deep reverence for my Queen.

Sweet Love, my blue-eyed Damsel,

‘Tis awesome the way You do what You do,

And I’m delighted for those magic moments with You.
