Eternal Truth An Open Verse

the longing
          for life
fragile
          transitory
                  soon gone
we fly away
     days
       numbered
one
by
one

we are but
             a breath
a passing
              shadow
often helpless
often undone
            yet
               never forsaken
but
blessed
       ever a delight
in
anothers eyes

uninhibited
          expressions
of love
cravings
of the
     imagination
of
unabashed
          sensual
            reflection

sensitive
        candour
           of personhood
unparalleled
&
celebrated
           by
             the
                beholder

affirmations
             in perspective
                 transformed
to blossom
&
breathe

perfect
       beauty
           idealized
&
   illumed
         in
            verse
