Ah love, sweet love, thy presence brings mine heart to rush. A torrent rages twixt the ribs of rising chest. I am blind, for I see nothing but thee. My cup fills slowly with thy wine of lips savored in a tender blink of mine eyes. My breath cools not, for each rise of my chest brings closer a trace of your softness. A garden lies before thee, where vines wind softly and slowly upon the trellis of your limbs. And with each dawn, the curl of them shall bring a dew to sprinkle the cool pond’s waters.. Will not thy spoken word search to hear? Or wilt thy speech fall deaf upon the leaves where thee once lay beside me? I wait for thee my precious jewel, thy polished sheen squints the hunger of mine eyes. The morrow brings death our moon and whence the tip does touch our earth I will speak only of you. For in my heart Nirvana lies and therein rests my soul for thee. |

The Bard lives - you bring such old world grace to the romance of your words - love it Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
