Notes About The Poem

'ere the Glow of Dawn

~In reply to Rick's prelude shown below~


I am your rose, free of thorns
walk beside me and conceive
our spirits mingling in love
hearts singing in perfect harmony

A sweet concerto beneath the stars
duet applauded by a haloed moon
in refrain, our kisses lingering
'ere the sun casts the glow of dawn

       

~ Rick's Prelude ~
'Ere the sun sinks
and thy love falls endless
may this moment pause in beauty
to ponder thy kisses

My scarlet rose of love
betake my spirit truly
as twilight falls gently
at last my heart sings

This was gorgeous Lin, such a melodic response to Rick's Prelude. These two piece definitely belong together as they share the beauty of the romance.
