Born Among Snowflakes Filigree
I have a deep true love and bond with winters cold,
born among snowflakes filigree;
though, I adore all seasons that unfold,
it is me- who holds my life's master key.
I just love spring and all her pretty colours bright,
and like autumn for leaves set free;
oh, so many kinds of love that delight,
born among snowflakes filigree.
Oh, this journey is short and I dream of it each night,
it is me- who holds my life's master key;
though not easy . . . for living is an endless fight,
just keeping love found is my plea.
I loved my wonderous parents a millionfold,
born among snowflakes filigree;
though, they rest in a cemetery old,
and it is me- who holds my life's master key.
God has blessed me with love pure gold,
and grandma's love I will ever hold;
treasured my sister and childhood pony,
my brother's bravery and grandpa's tea.
I felt passion, desire, yearning and romance,
true love was my reality;
so, on marriage we took a chance,
and holding our baby was just a glance.
Born among snowflakes filigree,
now, love waves from Heavens threshold;
and it is me- who holds my life's master key.
I also have an unconditional love for friends and pets,
the key . . . is love with kindness like a jewel;
it is devotion, endearment that has no regrets,
love is never resentful, arrogant or cruel.
Born among snowflakes filigree,
with God's love shining in all my sunrises and sunsets,
and it is me- who holds my life's key;
so, take a chance as this life has no "love" guarantee.
