A Heart That Moves

In a heart that moves no longer in hesitation no longer lurching to a halt only mindful of the moment knowing full well tomorrow will not come if today is not lived and in that sweet light I see a face in you that speaks to me of love that is bursting from my heart trying to tell you without fear that you are the one I adore without demand just because It is my good fortune to know the angel of the century who walks upon the water of your own glorious being floating inside your own body where you manifest in me affection stronger than steel But softer than the bread of life you call my secret name to a table where I feast upon eyes warmer than golden sunsets in an ocean of time that never needs hurry wanting to be eternally with you in your sweet embrace kissing me when the moon is right or the sunrise speaks your perfect name wisely like a lotus flower my precious companion hoping that you will be that with me holding hands that never part or when they do they feel a home calling them together again like homing pigeons that long to make their nest at night when all is dark and still and you can hear heart beats making love in the candle light
