Best Rondeau

We walked as one in love's embrace Wind at our backs, sea in our face Thinking of naught but love that night Light of the moon, it was so bright Seeing only my love's sweet face. We sought no more than love and lace The winds of fate are often base We lose too much when out of sight We walked as one Destiny sometimes displays grace A lover's fight we can embrace A wrong word works wickedly right An arrow shot down from the height Too often our love is debased We walked as one July 10, 2016
