Her Eyes Were Like Fireflies

My love, the depth of my fervor is without measure you are the face that illuminates the darkness you are the eyes filled with fireflies their gleamy glows fill love's misty realms you cause my heart to quiver importing me to dreamland where we'll accommodate ourselves on some barren shore as lovers...in a warm passionate embrace freed from the burdens of the world perhaps...taste our lips melting in another time and place where we'll glide to the stars on wishes and wings of golden memories we'll claim the nights as dreamers whose pockets are filled with poems...written by our souls when we learned to cross the bridge to ambrosial sighs treasured by lovers... joined by our fate before our shadows fall upon our footprints and we vanish in the gray twilight of our time on Earth 9/7/18 contest Verses of Metaphors II

Beautifully writ, Frederic, I'm sure it will do well. I Like your new Avatar, but shouldn't its arrestor hook be down? Regards, Viv
