Mara and Love

Hues of wonderful brilliant gold,
Reflections of fond warmth to my soul.
Forever my thoughts of you my dear,
Brings about this strange feeling of fear.

As you are all that drives me tonight,
I am filled with you and my love that is right.
At times I have yearned to release you, I try,
Only to find that without you, I would surely die.

Now you are forever deep within my special place you see,
For eternity, dear Mara, my love of you will always be.
Try as I will on this new spring day in May,
For you my love I can and will always pray.

Today I am here thinking and feeling you so very deep,
Back on our magical island dreaming of you as I sleep.
I struggle no longer as I pray hear me, my Lord above,
Lost forever in her soul, I am filled with Mara and this love.
