Falls Love

by Bill Turner   Nov 3, 2006


There is a chill in the air as fall rolls in
Pushing summer out the door, holding winter at bay
Barren trees dot the landscape of my life
Yet my tree of life stands tall, in bloom
The warmth of your love holding off winters gloom

Color of love dancing brilliantly before us
Like a sunrise on the desert horizon
Brilliant hues wrapping our souls in desire
Warming the sand of life beneath our feet
Painting my heart just as the day we did meet

The path of our love laid out before us in a golden glow
The light of the golden orange blazing on our skin
Sunshine a mere reflection of the heat from me and you
Burning under the skin, yearning for another kiss
Time marches on and these moments become our bliss

As the sun sets on our life together and winter rolls in
The setting sun shall paint our love in a purple hue
As we hold hands and love one another at the end of our life
I hope that you realize I gave my all to you
Painting your life with love, I do...
