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.
