Turning Pages To Paradise

Cast upon a book Her angel eyes Within her mind This beauty flies She's not restrained By earthly woes Within her mind Imagery flows In this garden Beneath morning star Wings to paradise She travels so far Look of serenity Yet inside there's heat On passionate pages Her heart skips a beat A sweet knowing smile Spreads across her face Imagining strong hands Removing her lace He wrote her this book For their wedding day Joined in the garden Paradise starts today Isaiaha Zerbst's "Poem in Paradise Contest"
