As Her Love Lives Forever In This Heaving Breast

As Her Love Lives Forever In This Heaving Breast


Wisdom, its great truths, that treasure, my newest quest.
As her love lives forever in this heaving breast.

As sun was waiting its glorious rise
I woke again, what a shocking surprise
Room was pitch black and clock stared at me
Blinking rapidly I began to see
A thin sliver of light enter the room
Rapidly it ran away the gloom
Thus without fear I ventured to speak
As into house a happy thought did sneak
Could this new day bring my desired goal
Live again, forgetting life's heavy tolls.

Wisdom, its great truths, that treasure, my newest quest.
As her love lives forever in this heaving breast.

As sun illumination seeds the earth
Dare we mortals rise above lowly birth
Bask in the truth that pure love transcends all
There in the future awaits golden halls.

Wisdom, its great truths, that treasure, my newest quest.
As her love lives forever in this heaving breast.

Romanticism

Note: 1
When walking with Mother Nature, waking with new-cast dawns
Pondering mysteries, life and seeing a speckled fawn
A call arrives crying, give thanks for love and its true gifts
And blessings from above, harmony, peace that so uplifts.

Note: 2
"There is strong shadow where there is much light."

I especially enjoy the repeated lines in some of your poem, Robert. "Wisdom, its great truths, that treasure, my newest quest. As her love lives forever in this heaving breast", is packed full of the present moment you are experiencing. What a blessed experience to see the fawn during your walk. A gift from a loving Father to help with the pain of healing. The depth of your words warm my heart and soul. Thanks for sharing my friend. A poet friend in Texas, Bill Another FAV, write on my friend!
