Free Verse On Love -Cocoon

Free Verse on Love - Cocoon Wrapped in the enchantment of your being Love’s strong and satin threads Binds you to me - closer ever closer. In a soft cocoon of silken strands Two souls now lie indivisible – Words unspoken – words heard and known. In a chrysalis of fiercely woven chords Eyes reach to meet with warm hands One heartbeat – one fragile breath. Deep within these quiet depths trembling Fragile wings find pulse, still unborn In the endless circle radiating, waiting. And when the moonlight finally cuts through This seamless space, butterflies emerge from mystery - Loves transforms you and me. 2-10-20
