Love Abounds

Love abounds in the still air
setting poets hearts on fire
Two souls filled with melody
Eros shot his arrow true

Piercing the organ of love
A sensual yearning starts
Within her heart an ember
Until touch sets it alight

These two poets united
They sing in sweet harmony
As their words of love pour forth
Blending together in rhyme

Together they face the World
rising to each new challenge
Within shared words they are bound
Two hearts now forever changed

Thanks Eileen. I helped out a bit on Shadow's poem and she was kind to have us post it as a joint piece.
