Eternity In Your Eyes

Aware; instincts suffused A feeling I've known Complete; never diffused Before birth twas sown Before planets aligned time had bound our hearts Moulded, deepened, refined Fused; no end no start Evolved beyond lifetimes Years measured in blinks Eons blending nightimes Eternity shrinks Others wanting taboo answers to life's "why's" Myself? Without question ...it lay in your eyes 02/14/2018

The ending... (: Beautifully written. I particularly like your line - "Years measured in blinks"...what a beautiful way to put it. "Eons blending nightimes" is special too. I love unique expressions like that. You are a thoughtful poet. Exquisitely done! I appreciate the format too. Always, Laura

Absolutely thrilling, Shadow. :) Your work is always so beautiful. I'm sorry I haven't been around. I was in Nairobi, Kenya doing student recruitment for the university I work for. I got to go on a safari. I'm just now trying to see what's going on in the soup. Sending warm thoughts.

This is really romantic and eternal love that has lasted through time.. You did this contest very well.. I am following you, but your poems do not come up on my poets I follow list.. Nor am I receiving notifications when someone comments on my poems.. how strange..

Fj Thomas
Date: 2/15/2018 11:17:00 AM

Hi S1, I get no notifications either. But to be honest PS used to send too many so I used to turn them off. I may have turned them off again. But thank you so very much.

Tom Cunningham
Date: 2/15/2018 10:52:00 AM

Glad I spotted this S.O. I used to get POTD notification and box is ticked but has stopped for some reason.Bugs in the software I suppose.
