Notes About The Poem

Lost In Your Love - Collaboration With White Wolf

As deep as oceans are in thy blue eyes
I ponder to myself: where have I been
Lost in your love, a bird in your high skies
A poor blind man I was, but now I've seen

Truth lies behind your eyes that I can see
Alone. I don't roam this earth without you,
For we are one, and one we'll always be
So darling take my heart, take my hand too.

And though your eyes stare without seeing me
They see much deeper than eyes ever could
They see deep in my heart where I am free
And where we live together, long and good

     No ocean separates the love we feel
     We're birds, our universe is vast and real

I love the enthusiasms you both have. Heck, I love you both. I really love the ending of this poem. The picture - ha! Talk about some luminous blues. Lifelong favorite-color-is-blue dude here.

A beautiful sonnet by the cool duo of the White team (nice moniker, Sara.) You fellas sure know how to sway the heartstrings. A lovely poem, Darren and Rick, no doubt about that. A 7 for sure. Love and peace.

They're back and just as great as ever. This was beautiful my two friends, when you two write together it is always something wonderful and amazing we find. The love in this poem really soars and those last two lines are perfect.

Good Morning Darren and White Wolf too. There are no words for this. I am in awe of its poetic beauty. The wonderful Sonnet is all dressed up and ready to show. Congratulations to you both for your collaboration and creation. This was a beautiful way to start the morning. It was a pleasure to turn to this. Well done entirely.
