Love Is Forever

In a world where hearts open and doves fly out I'll ask "Take my hand, dance with me forever" Motion creates motion, always fluid sensual Floating in a realm of space from a word Spinning faster and faster, as time becomes small While passion the connecting thread, weaves the dance As we cross the floor of time in rhythmic dance Movement brings its own pace, as it plays out While time pushes motion, becoming small Turning minutes into dreams that seem forever Two hearts search for the softest word And a world once gray turns red, sensual The warmest moments cling, they become sensual And the need to be loved the calling dance Understanding so gentle comes from a poetic word Creating emotion that keeps loneliness out As lovers, we shall worship truth, forever And emptiness once felt becomes small Love is a universe that never grows small It contains the deep oceans of the sensual Where the horizons stretch on forever And the lovers there reflect their dance This moment of beauty pushes darkness out And they write in their heart a gentle word Like a slender shaft of light from a written word Reveals the plummage worn by a pain turned small Closely arranged until its lines fade out From the mind and emotion of the sensual When the hand was taken to begin the dance And the fullness of love, now seems forever Though yearning and dreams can want forever They align parallel on life's hidden word And give life and color to this dance Carried away from a past now small To the arms of a lover, most sensual As each breath comes faster, releasing out The length of forever leaves life ever small As words from a poem strokes the heart so sensual Making the dance last, until final breath is out contest..Sestina 5/25/14
