Amidst Swirls of Twinkling Stars, Love Yet Flies

Amidst Swirls Of Twinkling Stars, Love Yet Flies

Above the soft gasps of night craving skies.
Amidst swirls of twinkling stars, love yet flies.

Outward, and onward through silence of marching time
Away from earth and ticking of clock's midnight chime
In veiled galaxies, hidden from mortals' view
Lie love' gems glistening as if morn' rose in dew
Memories and treasure in vaults lined with gold
Rarely seen except by those lovesick and so bold
As to dare voyage beyond earthen life and sad state
Fleeing worldly kingdom of death and seething hate.

Above the soft gasps of night craving skies.
Amidst swirls of twinkling stars, love yet flies.

There the dark worries of life are taken away
Admission is precious hope of that future day
When those departed unite in heavenly bliss
With prayed reunion of touch and eager kiss
Together in dreams and longed for paradise
Brief the dear moment but for now such will suffice
And hold each other until coming of dawn's glow
With wedded love just as pure as fresh falling snow.

Above the soft gasps of night craving skies.
Amidst swirls of twinkling stars, love yet flies.

Thank you, my friend. Your comment was a fine blessing to receive and read. True love is the greatest of gifts, but sadly- its loss carries the very deepest of sorrows. God bless....

You shared true love and now that she is gone, the world seems quite dim~reach for the stars with your writing she is listening in. Blessings, Paulette

Thank you, my friend. A measure of solace lies in dreams of the stars and a paradise waiting there for a blessed reunion. Writing such in poetic verse sooothes a sadden soul. God bless.
