Soul arises in the quiet space
The time of rest
After we embraced the early morning
Birds swooped your back
As we walked the gum leaf strewn pathway
Nearby a family played
As we sweltered within the heat
Accompanying the rising of the day
And on the return we took our time
There was no need to hurry
On the drive homeward your beautiful face
Shines radiant with a smile
There is light in your eyes
These special moments are the ones
I most long for
When the demands of a hungry world fall away
And it is just our two heartbeats
Resounding in the silence
I live for this feeling of peace
The sense that life has provided everything
For us
Because we asked
For so little
