Sequestered spirits sway
Sleepless nights, days
Ferries follow streams
To crystalline dreams
Starry eyes ablaze

Waiting our lives long
The heart’s divine song
Intoning desires
With all that inspires
Love will come along

Travelling nighttime skies
Turning planets at sunrise
Wishing-wells fill with coins
Shattered heart rejoins
Hopelessness fades and dies

Ascension, finally free flying
Featherlight, weight defying
It was always within reach
Holding sand on the beach
Love for us undying

And in His repeating song
Sung to us the nightlong
Love will come along

This is a beautiful poem. It touched me deeply... great work.

I hope so, cause I've been awaiting too long.
Until then can I interest you in a polka, or a Tango under the Moon.
The night is so young,
I see stars in those eyes,
and just one kiss.........

Don't wake me up please,
from this sweet dream,
that you've dreamed,
cause I'm waiting,
for the steam.

Great Poem Corinne,
I think I need to
dream now.

Corinne,

  so lovely, and such a wonderful message we should all take to heart.  He places us on paths and sings us along, doesn't He?

promises


some are made
some are kept
some are broken
some just fade away

some cannot be kept
they're like library books
checked out
and then returned

then there are the rare ones
these are not made
they're not kept
they just are

this promise is...
this love is...
timeless

Corinne, this poem is ok, I guess, if one likes beautiful words, excellent form and a good message. Otherwise, it ain't so hot!
