Love Takes Flight

When life took hold and breathed a sigh,
A life it tried to take,
One sigh is all it needed, should
But love grew in it’s way.

Love’s roots went deep, beyond the sigh,
Beyond what should have weeped,
For as it grew, a life took hold
Upon the underneath.

Stretching forth, it’s breath did take
With warmth that sun gave birth
With budding shoots from ground,
Bursting through
And wings began to show.

Colours, Rainbows around shone bright
Around life’s park, delight,
For love of life, new courage brought
The wings of love, take flight.
