MIRRORS OF LIFE
ANSULNOL, MY LITTLE TURTLE DOVE
DEAR ANSULNOL, MY LITTLE TURTLE DOVE
WHAT BE THIS, THESE WINGS WRAPPED ABOUT MY HEART
LIKE SOME CHERISHED ANGEL FROM ABOVE,
DRAWING ME WITH THE WORDS I THOUGHT MY OWN
IN MORE DELICATE EXPRESSION SHE SPEAKS MY HEART
AND MAKES ME KNOW I'M NOT ALONE!
BUT ALAS! AND IT ALWAYS COMES TO THIS
WANTING MORE I'M NEVER SATISFIED
TIS ALSO MORE THAN MY SOUL DEMANDS, YOUR KISS!
IN A POEM SO RARE SHE READS MY SOUL
AND CARRIES ME DEEP WITHIN HER WELCOME WOMB
WHERE WE ARE BOTH MADE WHOLE
AND THEN THE NERVE OF HER TO GIVE DELIGHT
AS SHE SLAMS ME THROUGH A MILLION YEARS OF AWAKENING
LIKE SOME GORGEOUS BIRD REBORN IN FLIGHT
OH YES, SHE HAS CAPTURED ME SO VERY WELL
LITTLE DID SHE KNOW MY QUICK INTAKE OF BREATH
RELIVES AGAIN THOSE WORDS SHE LOVES TO TELL.
YOUR NEW ADMIRER,
