Bodies and Souls Entwine

As Dusk absorbs a charcoal hue, ebony inks the heart of Night. And an owl bids daylight adieu, silhouetted, against last light. We welcome the glow of the moon on the wings of a turtledove. And glinting like a gold doubloon, Luna smiles down upon our love. Our spirits float above the Earth, untethered from their mortal perch. And we realize love's true worth; lies in the finding, not the search. We gaze up at a blushing Mars as our bodies and souls entwine. And a sky filled with twinkling stars forms a crown: for my Valentine.
