The waxing gibbous Moon this early eve seems partially submerged in pale blue sky, her silent sultry stillness interweaves the draw that I've to swim in rich brown eyes Unknown to you the Moon's watched over me whispering that in patience I abide, you're to my heart as she is to the sea as swelled in my emotion as her tide While tawny, sinewed Queen Palm spine's are raised elliptic leaves, lime fingered silhouettes, hosannas to celestial light are praised this Moon has shared with me Love's due kismet Though I await the words from your lips phrased the Moon, soon full, informs our souls have met, through eyes of sparkling stars we Lovers gaze intensity beyond this night's sunset Impassioned sonatina birthed duet bright blushing future's promised roseate. |

Unknown to you the Moon's watched over me whispering that in patience I abide, you're to my heart as she is to the sea as swelled in my emotion as her tide Can't tell ya how much I wish I'd written this! Intense and universal! please don't change, please don't break |

Oh sigh ~ simply beautiful that is all I can say. The images this piece brings to mind could not be painted any better by a master. I believe those rose-colored glasses suit you well and your ears shall hear what patience bestows on you. Nothing means more to me than faith, |
