Nature’s tonic ~

Tonya Boland 1978 (Tulsa)



Natures tonic~

Warm embrace, it’s ok to sway love, only your tiptoe’s…
Caterpillars race, it’s the day love, the sunshine I suppose.
Little freckles, across your face love, I wiggle my nose.
It’s beautiful my dear, I promise my love, we only know what we know.
A sweet morning smile , it’s okay love, she said as she rose!
Fingers crossed, you’ll never forget me love, memory remains like a ghost.
Tell me all your secrets, I’ll never tell love, darkness in a small dose.
The flowers grew, I told you so love, what you water always grows.
An intimate dance, it’s all we need love, our bodies so very close.
A death to the past, it’s nature’s call love, a clean slate I propose.
A hand held out, I’ll never leave you love, all of your fear disposed .

Just trying to make my way through a maze of dark deception. A contradiction of sorts, yet I remain intrigued. Nice to meet you I think ~ more…
