HOW I MISS MY LUSH LILY

O my dear poet friends

Scattered worldwide

Can anyone of you convince me

Of a life without a soul?

No one can

Disprove me as I wait

For a kiss of life from my "Lush Lily"...



Heather Burns Wilkins

You know me via my poetry

And know how much I am in love

With my very own "Lush Lily"



Let the sky play with its stars

And the planets and moons cajole

I find nothing except

An emptiness sans my 'whole'



She is everything to me

Care not I for what others say

I cannot tarry for long

Without her and her true love.



She is my sun and moon and planets

My galaxies of all stars

This I have also told God

She rules my all by far.



My doomsday is relived each day

When my "Lush Lily" is not there

To recreate my Paradise of love

With her smiling heavenly ways.



In her twinkling laughter is peace

Aye, my poet friends

This is not a mountain of a molehill

When I am in her healing embrace.



So how can anything ever "be"

Without her sweet company?

Did not Adam prefer Eve

And delayed eternity?
