Afterlife

I feel your soft musk fragrances The moonglow bouncing through the trees; We entwine as flamed cloud dances When joy of borrowed time freezes: And songbirds chant their heady drool Enticing mild tunes while we flow... I pulse, I weep upon heaven's pool To feel your shadow all aglow. A visit from above brings calm On gentle that's sure to bring, An afterlife's most sacred psalm From love’s flight through your angel’s wing. Till eternal star grants us bliss On a midnight divine like this. Best Rhyming poem July-September 2017 Sponsor: John Hamilton -------------- Rhyme, Sonnet Written 7/12/2017: Submitted 10/1/2017
