Notes About The Poem

Lost In Each Other's Embrace

Time's eyes twinkle kindly towards my fate,
while I steal glances between old growth trees.
Aching for what's beyond the path that waits,
that rekindles a driving force within me.

It has been so long ago since I've felt
the tightening of sweaty hands against
once argent frame, where fond affection dwelt,
and heard teasing laughter that would ascend.

Sheath in his continuance of life, which cleaves 
with passing of time, love did, finally bloom, 
while petulant leaves and wisp of wind weaves
swapped stories on whist cool nights it consumes.

I nuzzled into his embrace, to exist 
there forever, relation which subsists.

This is a lovely sonnet that fits that pic well, Eve. I've seen that pic before. You brought it to life with these words.
