When two share hearts of common bond
as deeply as wave's crash is loud,
smooth motion o'er life's obstacles~
together~ flows with hands held proud.

Never each new dawn brings balmy sun;
a storming churn in clouds o'erhead
attempts to strike its bitter drops;
unravel ropes to baring thread.

Clasp tight, grasp firm, with arms protect,
hold fast our warmth behind strong wall;
Put thunder's roar to quiet rest~
Make dry sky tears before they fall.

When two share hearts of common bond,
adoring oneness quells our fear.
When two share love the storm abates;
life's troubles tend to disappear.

Caresses the harshest of curves.

  I love reading this one.  You seemed to capture the trials and tribulations that two may go through as they try to hold onto love.  Storms will come often.  Excellent write. Loved it.

To appreciate clear skies, we have to
face some rough weather.
Thank you, Garfield

I can picture the contentment and sense of being safe from all harm just by reading this one.  Very nice writing Chanson.

What a perfect tale of true life.....storms come to us everyday in so many ways and when you have the love of another to help you through it then it helps make the storm not look so bad afterall.
