Love’s Song
Love touches; thrills and delights
Bringing us to that high mountain
Reducing life to its simple essences
Passion, hunger, senses, desire
Higher and higher, immersed in delight
Swimming is the warm seas of love
Dancing the tango of romance
Eyes wide open to drink in every sight
Captured into the moment, fully embraced
Welcoming the sensation of drowning
Overwhelmed by desire, appetites surrender
The moment becomes love’s song
Once it is sung, it dwells forever in the heart
No matter what, love endures eternally
Across the barren landscape, life blossoms
Solitude becomes a warm sweater
Passion ebbs and it’s embers die
Gone… leaving only the memories
The joy now tempered with a sadness
Loss brings a melancholy, yet still a smile
Winds sweeping across the mountains
Bringing that chilled sense of peace
Memories now full of the joy of that moment
As I listen to the echo of love’s song
