    A Long Sadness Apart

As the frigid northwest wind
blows grey-broken clouds
across a thousand miles
   of desolation
beneath a cold, indifferent
   Winter moon,
stars and frost are the
only companions of  
this lonely spirit-seeker
and the wandering
midnight shadows,
thinking only of you
and perfect Love
a long sadness apart.

Desolate landscape perfect backdrop for these words of longing.

"sigh"

Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe
