Beyond the Stars

I will find you in the moonlight,
as the hall clock’s chiming midnight,
drifting slowly with the moon beams
‘mongst the stars, caressing daydreams,
as your thoughts reflect your heart light.

Somewhere floating out of eyesight
through the cosmos, dreamy space flight,
while defying earthly slipstreams,
     I will find you.

There we’ll kiss in dim of starlight
while enjoying love’s sweet birthright;
passions stirring in our bloodstreams,
hearts are racing ‘long the jet streams.
There beyond the stars at midnight
     I will find you.

Dear John, I felt the devotion in this poem, and It moved me and left me in awe admiring such passionate desire to reunite and find your beloved in space and time that feels so ethereal and cosmically pleasing! This is absolutely gorgeous! And has a lyrical touch to the refrains too! I am usually not into refrains. But here it gives comfort, like its meant to be, as love reassurance! How touching and deeply moving is this poem! Its a fave for me for the flow and the profound nature of your word weaving! Thank you for sharing this poetic treasure! Pleasure reading! Congratulations on your top win and also I see it received POTD! Double congrats! Sending you light always ~

“passions stirring in our bloodstreams” quite romantic! Congratulations on POTD, John, don’t see too many poems penned in this Rondeau format

Thank you for the congrats, I appreciate it. I think the Rondeau is a beautiful format, it’s too bad more writers don’t use it.
