Love Has Wings Poem by Cheryl Griffith

Love Has Wings

Rating: 4.3


Love has wings ready to fly
Oh love, linger a while
Rest Your tired wings
on the branch of my heart
Why? why must you wander?
Why do you stare bright eye at the sky?

If you must leave, then go!
I release you, go
Run wild through green grass and open fields
And when you're tired running, soar
Fly, fly, my butterfly

I release you because I love you
Go then, go
And I will go on without you
My love can never clip such wild wings
They were made to be free
So I tell myself
Standing here missing you
Looking at shadows
And staring at the dust of your wings

No words can match the beauty of this composition, penned in the state of bliss, perhaps. Salute to your poetic sense. The doors of my heart are open, will ever remain open for you, my love CP
