Soul to Soul the Lovers Met Two lovers of the purest love Of that which sings the gentle dove Of that which winter breezes blow Soft icy whispers in the snow An ocean of a great divide Attempting storm and furious tide With churning cresting waves to hide Her lover on the other side His soul in its allotted space In distant and forbidden place Through visions of the spirit's grace She looked upon her lover's face Her timid soul then love confessed In quiet darkness it undressed And lay awaiting his caress His gentle hand upon its flesh No wicked wind or albatross Could so create a lover's loss No sorrow could the beast beget As soul to soul the lovers met Impassioned spirits intertwined And kissed the kiss, and sipped the wine On purest love the spirits dined Until the end of timeless time Elizabeth Santos 11/20/99 |

Elizabeth, This brought a tear to my eye and a very very heavy sigh. I wish I could explain the why. Exquisite. |

Sy, The why of why is just a sigh Of moments missed and clouded sky A poem as this was not conceived But spun of truth that I believed Elizabeth |

Liz, Spun of truth that you believe spun of truth that you conceive So why of why if not a sigh, Must be something in my eye. |

Sy, I simply don't believe you cry It must be something in your eye A grain of sandy beach did fly And stirred around the watered eye Elizabeth |

Liz, A grain of sand did fly my eye? True that could make me cry. But I'd rather the latter vie. |

Sy, Truth has beauty Truth has grace When it looks you In the face From the truth You cannot run Nor can a dishrag Hide the sun Elizabeth |

This is one of the most gorgeous love poems I've ever read! And, it doesn't surprise me that a gentle poet like yourself could pull it off so flawlessly! This is a keeper! Take care, Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |

I seem to be feeling this tonight. Lovely, this. I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement. |
