Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Free Verse On Love

Free Verse On Love

Our twain hearts be thou one,
a fixture in Heaven from the
start, inseparable - never
to part, where, our sole 
hearts impart, upon
blessed Earth,
forever be,
united,

Thou wilt inspire stars to sparkle,
upon thine Eden' countenance,
albeit, a useless matter as
they hast tender hints
of thee lingering,
in ages past,
ere stands,
a youth,
again,

Hence, thou wilt coerce a meandering
river to attune a melody, art, sway
its water kissing banks, and pet
its rocks, to enrich harmony,
and outstretched willows
sweep up swimming
wildflowers met,
bloom scents,
be just as
sweet,
 
Thou wilt soothe the gods to dedicate
songs to thee, play rhapsody of
both harp and lyre, atop Mt.,
Olympus be heard a
righteous accord,
lyrically well,
appointed,
words,

***United again, sweet words...
