Charlotte Lucas was such a smart Austen character.
Sometimes I wonder if your encouragement is "proper"
I wonder if mine is...
But that is when I'm alone, at home...at night
that is now.
Coz' when I see you
Oh boy how easy it is to be within love then!
Your eyes, hair, freckles and smile seem encouragement enough
the way you speak about God and His children
when you reach out to take my hand across the table
I can almost hear my heart sing
it sings a happy, simple song
a song about spring, and hearts and dogs and sunshine
a song about happy endings and merry beginings
a song about smiling babies and family dinners
about church mornings and late night prayers
about you and me growing old together.
And then we say goodbye...
and I come back to now
2018, July.
And we're not there yet
But maybe with proper encouragement...
