Like Seeds in the Garden of Our Hearts
Poem
It's almost that good weather, babe, hot summer days chased by warm summer nights
Let's head out to the cabin, fill up the clawfoot we have sitting on the deck, light a few candles as the evening wraps itself around us
Lean on back babe, and when the fireflies start writing love letters across the field of wildflowers, we'll blow out the candles and listen to the summer sounds
Let's soak up the beauty of that night sky overhead, all those stars and the quiet whispers we share as we soak it all up, melting together in some hot water under a summer night sky
Those nice hot summer days are coming darlin, let's get ready to head out to the cabin, where you can lean back on me, while I lean back on that old tree, covering ourselves in a little shade
And smell all those wildflowers dancing in summer breezes, my arms laying loosely around you, as you hold my hand, little traces of fingers across forearms dancing between us
All this beauty around us and it's you that I'm peeking at, catching you peeking back, that special little smile and your eyes holding mine, my favorite look with all the feels that says so much
Sounds good, doesn't it babe? Packing up the car, heading out for a little get-away, tucking in close on cool summer evenings, wrapping ourselves up in all those stars and each other's arms, stealing kisses next to the field of wildflowers
Close your eyes darlin, take a deep breath, can you smell all those blooms dancing like honey on the breeze?
Let's take some early morning walks, looking for a nice place to watch the sunrise, somewhere we can come back to and watch it set, just smiling and laughing and chatting, passing stories like kisses, and us melting into our moments
Whatcha say, babe? Packing up the car with all the little treats and goodies we like, food for campfires, and that old fuzzy blanket to sit on, and some good speakers for summer dances with the wildflowers
Let's plant this plan like seeds in the garden of our hearts, feed and water them with all the feels, our little moments, and little peeks chasing stolen kisses
Let's take each other's hand, you lacing your fingers with mine and take some early morning walks, sitting on a big rock watching the sun kiss your face and my lips kissing your lips in that special way that says so much
Lean on back babe, let's watch the butterflies flutter, and when the evening comes, let's read love letters written in the summer sky by fireflies, and whispered from your heart to mine, and my heart back to yours
Let's plant our plan like seeds in the garden of our hearts, feeding them with all the feels and the whisper of butterfly wings fluttering and heartbeats skipping
It's almost that good weather babe, let's get ready for the cabin, sharing some summer nights and cool evening kisses, whatcha say?
