How & Why

How?

   Can the morning sun, 
       warm and radiant,
       rise above all,
       and chase away the cold loneliness of the night.

   Do the colorful autumn leaves,
       crisp and delicate,
       part with the trees,
       and dance majestically in the brisk autumn wind.

   Can everything in this existence that is exquisitely beautiful,
       remarkably gentle,
       and utterly breathtaking,
       be magically woven into the unique and lovely masterpiece that you are.
 

Why?

   Does the harmonious chant of the birds,
       joyous and graceful,
       soothe me like a caring touch.

   Does the falling snow,
       pristine and delicate,
       paint a magnificent tapestry upon the land,
       every time it visits. 

   Does the essence of passion, and of caring overcome me,
       as my heart in a pure state of ecstasy,
       beats with the force and intensity of a cataclysmic event,
       all from the thought of holding you gently in my arms.
 

How and why

So many mysteries, so few answers

Perhaps I am fortunate to have a mind that cannot answer all the questions, 
solve all the mysteries, and explain why the lovely things in life can shine brightly
throughout the grey, the clouds, and rainy days that can occur throughout
the many seasons of life.

I am fortunate yes fortunate and blessed.
Blessed to have a heart that can embrace the morning sun,
a heart that can be moved by the chant of the birds, and especially,
a heart that can truly cherish the precious treasure that you are.

By   Daniel Hebert Dedicated to Lianne Deborah
