Never...never again...
will i hide my heart.
Like a sun refracting lake,
i have become pellucid.
Warm these waters with
your presence, glide
upon smooth billowing calmness.
Peer upon the colours
of me, now sun lambent,
laid for your eyes.
Feathery mist disenthralls a
brumal phoenix, trailing a veil
across dawns burning backcloth.


Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, ring out the old, ring in the new,ring out the false, ring in the true..A Lord Tennyson

Wonderful Imagery....

"dawns burning backcloth."  Only one of many.  It's impossible to hide your heart and be a good poet.

beautiful poem for a beautiful person! I wish you both the best!

J. M. Barrie, the playwright, may have said it best when he wrote, “God gave us memories so that we might have roses in December.”

This lovely poem should keep her "Light" burning brightly for you! You two are so romantic.

Love to you both,

Linda
