Homecoming
Across the sky, the wisps of dawn appear
To close a rendezvous that may not last,
While gentle words in silken phrases smear
The hemline of nightfall as you depart:
For duty of war slits my forlorn heart
Rendering eves needled as a pierce dart.
Should faith bring you home; remember the time
When sunsets lounge in field of glittered rays
Bequeathing a vow ...a union sublime
Igniting the dance of rapture which portrays
The blooming morns where devotion obeys
A nourishment ripe through heavenly ways.
