A Pantoum Journey

Blind through the heavens I seek
For the star that bears your name
There within my heart I keep
Eternally loves soft flame

For the star that bears your name
Guides me with loves sweet call
Eternally loves soft flame
Does hold me close and enthralled

Guiding me with loves sweet call
To stand by your side as wife
Does hold me close and enthralled
This bond together we call  life

To stand beside your side as wife
Brings to me a joy untold
This bond together we call life
Nothing manmade can unfold

Brings to me a joy untold
This family we have raised
Nothing manmade can unfold
That which always does amaze

The family we have raised
There within my heart I keep
That which always does amaze
Blind through the heavens I seek
