Poem Title:
Poem
An early morn mist that fadeth away revealeth the goddess that stole this heart. In radiance, her hair shone as blazing gold soft-born winds welcomed her that fine day. Her approach held me silent and steadfast earth and sky both envied her elegance. Nothing on earth could her power dispel nothing could her love's depth ever outlast. Transfixed, my frozen legs refused to act for her magnificent beauty brought me fear. Fear of not knowing why at me she gazed I wished my lustful thoughts, I could retract. O' Blessed day, when I saw that loving smile, her warmth cast forth to calm this lonely soul. With heart relieved and soul stripped bare, I saw love's truth, in it was no human guile. Then, she took my trembling hand and said words that will forever burn in this glad heart, "I chose you, for thy spirit needs true love's gift and with it comes relief from all thou dost dread." She led me to paradise through beacons of gold. Emerald eyes sparkling, brighter than the sun. I watched as mischief grew in the vixen's orbs. She woke this heart that long ago had grown cold. Alas, she spoke to me in a gentle lilting voice, sweet symphonies she crooned in my willing ear. Beyond the realm of all opulent Utopian dreams my spirit rose aloft with her. In love, we rejoice. Up to the stars then to the dark side of the moon. Ere long we rested where no eyes could intrude upon tender kisses she bequeathed to my lips. My lovely goddess surrendered to me in a swoon. O' what depth of passion between us doth lie. Breath mingled with breath until the sun rose. Within my arms she stirred, but for a moment then snuggled closer with a soft angelic sigh. She had chosen me to love in that early morn mist. From dawn to dawn she endowed her glorious gift; the gift of love, 'twas like no other I had ever known. My golden haired goddess, lips longing to be kissed. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Written with admiration for a talented poet...Robert Lindley. Robert, thank you for the journey among the brightest stars.
