Beautiful Scenes, Night Their True Love Was Born, Two of Three

Beautiful Scenes, Night Their True Love Was Born,
two of three 

Sublime ...
    Love's sweetest bliss,
Whispers tender and sweet
Moanings, pleasures, ecstasy's touch
Sublime.

Moon had its most bountiful gold-glows cast
filtering through tall oak trees onto earth
they in love that truly forever lasts
cared not for fame nor for world's greedy worth.

Romance demands they stay together here
allowing life and joy to penetrate
with the power of joined strength face their fears
and embrace the beauty of Loving fate.

He saw into her gleaming bright blue eyes
moonbeams of ardor's deep radiant glow
she saw in his face, love that never dies
as each yielded to love's tidal tow.

As night's moon and love's hands joined, so did they.
Into loving arms until break of day.

Passion ...
    Love and kisses
Feelings heart wants and needs
Vows, he for her and she for he
Passion.

Thank you my friend. That is enough for me that you liked this format and the new and creative pieces that it has birthed. I did endeavor to put my all into it and was hoping it would resonate well with those that read it. My problem is not having enough time to compose as I once did before my wife's illness. We are very blessed that her first chemo treatment went as well as it did. her next chemo is this coming Tuesday. God bless..

"She saw in his face, love that never dies" Of course, as he saw the same in her eyes. This is so beautiful and romantic, soft, tender and passionate- all at the same time. You have created a Masterpiece my dear friend. My best to you and your family. Congratulations Robert, on Poem of the Day. :) Brandy

Thank you my friend. With over forty views and now two comments , I think that perhaps this form and my writings are not too many readers tastes. I do so deeply appreciate both wonderful comments and my true friends... I feel that my pen no longer measures up. God bless..

True love, passion, romance, dreamy imagery, a touch of shadowy intrigue, and the moon - all my favorite elements, woven into a charming and beautiful Rhyme - just love this, Sir Roberto, and am adding to my favorites! Nicely done, my friend - keep up the great work! :o)

Thank you my friend. I will finish the third part soon and post it. Then perhaps stop writing the (CSC).... As I am attempting to finish my many poem fragments accumulated over these last few decades. Time always seems to be too short and life seems to fight me in every way..
