Love

By: Jonathan Perrie Thagard

I know I heard it coming
Amid my busy way,
I heard it in the laughter
Of children at their play.

The happy song, a bluebird
Sang in the honey vine.
The merry chirp of crickets,
Soft breezes in the pine

That leans beside my doorway.
The growing sounds of spring
Were magnified with wonder,
More than a spring could bring.

There was a certain something
To set the day apart;
Love nudged me on the shoulder,
Love touched me in the heart!
