I float on high
on the drug of your eyes
Clouds and candy hearts
Passing me by.

My heart will never
Be so out of line
As when we touch
Your eyes to mine

How can a mere poet
with unsubtle words
describe feelings
so deep as those.

How hearts can touch
So close together
and love is born
surviving forever

Hand in Hand
love and lovers
over Golden sand
Dancing to their own band

Lost in fantasies
of loves command
of flowers, chocolates
Loves contraband.

Even now in a world
Old and Gray
Love in the power
That is lighting the day.




The very deep did rot: O Christ!
That ever this should be!
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

==================

how? ...
by writing it with sincere words and kissing it with rhyme divine ...
and this poet has done that(not a mere poet,either)  
Beautiful poem Walter.. and you know I love this one.

~Heart in Hand~
by Vertical Horizon
from the cd Live Stages

I know it's been a long road
To get these towns behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow I am
There for you and you're there for me

Pictures and photographs
Memories and windows
Goodbyes and epitaphs
Heartbeats and hellos

Chorus:
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand

These fields may hold a hunting ground
But the wolves are far behind me and I
Hear the howls and the distant sound
Of the messengers lost at sea

Into the morning light
Followed by madness
Reach through the empty fight
Searching through sadness

Chorus

I know it's been a long road
To get these fears behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow I am
There for you and you're there for me

Pictures and photographs
Memories and windows
Goodbyes and epitaphs
Heartbeats and hellos

Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand ...



Heaven bound on wings of love,
there's so much that you can rise above.
I surrender heart and soul,
sacrificed to a higher goal.

And love shall last through all time.  Beautiful!

To capture and live a moment is truly living
