Birds Sang Symphonies

Hidden deep within me Dwelt joy I never knew, That chose to reveal itself The moment I met you. From depths I could not fathom Arose a raging fire, Smitten by your beauty My heart raced with desire. An uneventful life I'd led, Each day passed in its turn. Love then called upon me Unleashed, my passion burned. Colours seemed more vibrant Birds sang symphonies, Somehow the sun shone brighter My waiting heart, now free. For love I had doubted, Was in the stars for me. Yet here was I, ecstatic Amid love's sweet mystery. Entry for END 2018 STANDARD,ANY FORM,ANY THEME, UP TO A MAX OF 20 LINES Poetry Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand 27/12/18. Placed =1st.
