Eternal Devotion

In gardens, 'neath a moon's enchanting gaze,
A flower strange, in blooms of odd array,
Yet, in its form, my heart found gentle sway,
A love that none but I could truly praise.

Though others scoffed, rejecting petals *****,
My love for you bloomed fierce, undaunted, strong,
Each twist and turn, a melody, a song,
A bond that time nor judgment could endear.

As time shall pass, and petals start to fade,
Their fragrance sweet will linger in the air,
For love's embrace forever shall be there,
In memories, in whispers softly laid.

So like that flower, unique and rare,
My love for you abides, beyond compare.

A fantastic sonnet Luna. With time, love may not shine as bright. But it will never be forgotten.
