Knocking down this broken fence,
I wander through the fields
Headed for a line of trees
to find what all it yields
Foot prints in the fresh plowed earth,
my mind so longs to see
What the world does have in store,
now offered up for me
The sun sits shining over head,
so bright its warming rays
Hanging from a sky of blue,
a beacon on display
Still I see horizon’s faire
of shadows on the wall
Wandering, I take a breath
and wonder of it all
I travel on my journey still
when there before my eyes
A flower like a special song
averts my lonely cries
Beautifully it stares at me
with hope for all to share
Bending down upon my knee,
this flower waiting there
Loveliness within I find
of petal'd smiling touch
For my dreams have found a truth
desires felt so much
Many were the days I lived
with nothing much so true
Until the sun did shine its light
and lead me here to you
I shall build a wondrous wall
to shelter you from harm
Tend you now and everyday,
protect you from the storm
Nourish you and keep you safe
for this eternity
So I may keep forever more
this joy you bring to me
Never more shall this man roam
beyond this valley view
For I accept you as my own,
my perfect flower, you
