As I Hold Her Under This, Merciful God's Moon

As I Hold Her Under This, Merciful God's Moon


Her heart sang, the tune broke my lost song
 life without her, how did I ever get along
Clouds once loomed over my every long day
 before she made me bow and silently pray

Please keep this dream in my lost life
 remove painful sting and life filled with strife
Let her dance and sing another sweet tune
 as I hold her under this, merciful God's moon

Hold time back as I find a miracle now
 give me wisdom to find out just how
To win her heart to join with this lost soul
 her love and life is my blessed newfound goal

I pray that this new branch bears sweet fruits
 as we seal our fate and our tree sets firm roots!

Robert, Most Outstanding!! This rhymed sonnet is quite touching and most emotive. I agree with Paul Callus about the closing couplet. It's quite beautiful and the imagery you use portrays a most compelling message of oneness and affirmation. Another 7+++++ and a definite FAV!! Cheers and Best Wishes, Gary
