Love At Its Zenith

The crimson light is fading from the day
The coolness spreads catching life in its sway
This bewitching time of the night as I walk through
My search ends when I am close to you

Love is at its zenith tonight
As together we are
Brings rest for the soul of this wanderer
We’ve come this far
And love is at its zenith tonight
The tired soul at rest
My belief in God’s might
Our love and warmest nest

Love teaches, the soul must learn
That trust and belief will turn
The blossoming winds which blows outdoors
And catch and keep it in the hearts of mine and yours

Love is at its zenith tonight
As together we are
Brings rest for the soul of this wanderer
We’ve come this far
And love is at its zenith tonight
The tired soul at rest
My belief in God’s might
Our love and warmest nest

Inspired by the lyrics of Elton John’s song “Can you feel the love tonight”

It is that time between day and night when we often feel most at peace. A brilliant rewrite of the Ellton John song, Tahera, and I wish you success in the contest. Love and blessings to you. Forgive me for not reading more; I've got the flu and it's been keeping me in bed. Love, Carolyn
