I Bend My Knee

I bend my knee to love, long may she reign So I may hold her love that's made of gold I'll touch the depth of souls with love I gain That gives to me a heart as we grow old To see eyes gleam so bright with warmth so new That will etch my name on love's, still of night We'll ask of time, to stop as we pass through And find our hearts will glow, as souls take flight To leave this world of shades as we dream on With a love that's felt in this world we trust Where we will know the truth of love we spawn As love's new birth has born from what is just I found in you a heart that has no fears With you, there is a gift of love, for years 9/21/19 contest Because it's Tuesday 140- 140 Sonnet cash prize sponsor William Kekaula

Oh my gosh...my heart, it beats again. I remember saying this once before, but it's exactly what I'm thinking again now, this piece (along with it's musical accompaniment) is like oxygen to the soul ~ astonishingly beautiful, Frederic.
