Define Yourself?

A quaint garden, under moonlit skies,
A boy, his heart aflutter, met her eyes.
With nerves ablaze, he uttered, "Define your self,"
Hoping her words would reveal untold wealth.

She pondered a moment, her gaze soft and kind,
Then with a smile, she began to unwind:
"I am the whisper of leaves in the breeze,
The laughter that dances among the trees.

I am the song of the birds at dawn's first light,
The shimmering stars that guide you through the night.
I am the scent of roses in bloom,
The warmth of sunshine, chasing away gloom.

I am the echo of waves upon the shore,
The softness of sand, inviting you to explore.
I am the colors of the rainbow after rain,
The gentle touch that eases your pain.

I am the passion that ignites the flame,
The keeper of secrets, never to shame.
I am the melody in your favorite song,
The harmony that keeps you feeling strong.

I am the sparkle in your eyes when you smile,
The reason you go the extra mile.
I am the dreams that fill your sleep,
The promise of love, forever to keep.

I am all this and more, for you to discover,
A journey of love, unlike any other."
With every word, his heart did soar,
For in her definition, he found forevermore.

Hand in hand, they walked away,
Two souls entwined, come what may.
For in her defining, he found his world,
In her love, his heart unfurled.
