“Tender” ~a poem by Linda Willows

Fly bright, my Love.
Sweet thoughts go by
of yester-Night.
Tender would thee
live by Light.
Alas,
the world
would
be
too Bright.

  4. Beautiful and mystical…. like a special connection only you can know and feel — and nurtures you in the dark of night… (just my take of course:) Loved it Linda xo RL

  10. Beautiful the thoughts that tease one of the night that inspired the breeze of the day to caress senses ..

    • beautiful wordings wind, thank you Soma….some senses extend beyond those of “the day”, they are too bright…they let the sun of this world warm all hearts, yet, they stay…reigning in deeper veins that guide our way… happiness to know you, ~Heart, Linda

  11. Beautiful. The imagery arose in my heart was about someone who died too young because the world was not ready to receive her light.
