Love Is the Prize

When the night was dark For the moon was hiding And the stars in the galaxy refused to shine You came to find me with ebullient vibes And the dawn of sunrise You fetched my water when I was thirsty Feeding my hunger like an angel of mercy Setting on fire every breath of desire With ebullient vibes and the dawn of sunrise Love is the prize when passions rise That's how I found In a romantic sound Deep in my heart A treasure full of wants Desires so strong lost for a while Till you came along You fetched my water when I was thirsty Feeding my hunger like an angel of mercy Setting on fire every breath of desire With ebullient vibes and the dawn of sunrise Love is the prize when passions rise Hosting princely charm You romanced my form Stealing me away from ordinary bounds Healing my feelings with a tip of your crown And the love you found You fetched my water when I was thirsty Feeding my hunger like an angel of mercy Setting on fire every breath of desire With ebullient vibes and the dawn of sunrise Love is the prize when passions rise July 28, 2018 HM: Your choice (12) love verse by Brian Strand Lyrics inspired by the song: Love Will Keep Us Alive by Eagles

Vijay I wish you would enter more contests. I came here hoping maybe you had done the four line challenge on a poem about love. I bet you would have written a stunner!

Vijay Pandit

Your vote of confidence means a lot Andrea. Many thanks. I could have written one on love..but four lines I found constraining. You are right..I am being selective about the contests I write for.
