in the land of yore

“Where have you been my whole life long?”
He whispered in her ear –
“I’ve waited for you”, she soft replied,
As she snuggled near.

They walked along a river’s edge,
Where water lilies bloom -
And dreamed of worlds beyond the stars,
Beyond all strife and gloom.

Many sunny days have passed,
Many stormy nights;
Still they lift their eyes above,
To the starry heights.

There to the river’s edge they come
To rest side by side;
Above a dome of clear night sky,
And moon their only guide.

Two forms of earthly dust are born,
To dust will both return -
But how sweet the time from dawn to dusk,
When hearts with fire burn.

love this:
Two forms of earthly dust are born,
To dust will both return -
But how sweet the time from dawn to dusk,
When hearts with fire burn.

Very, very beautiful!   It does my heart good to know romance is out there doing just fine!
I read this several times, each enjoying the flowing rhythm and the imagery.
