Love Does Grow

Our love does grow in moon’s soft glow, as moonbeams trickle down to earth; their silvery hue gives love rebirth; in moon’s soft glow, our love does grow. In summer breeze our hearts at ease, as fireflies softly light the night; for love to grow the time is right, our hearts at ease in summer breeze. We dance about as stars come out and twinkle down from up above; with soft embrace we share our love as stars come out and dance about. Our love still grows as moon still glows, and in the dark the fireflies blink, and up above, stars seem to wink as moon still glows and love still grows.

You made this look so easy John, but I know it is anything but! I love the clever way you reversed your first and fourth lines to enhance your rhyme. A beautiful enclosed rhyme deserving of your silver medal my friend. I loved this! Congratulations! : ) xxoo

Thanks, John. I did get a bit creative with this; it's similar to a Swap Quatrain in that the phrases are swapped in the first and fourth lines but, being an Enclosed Rhyme, the rhyme scheme is different than a normal Swap Quatrain. Glad you liked it; I look forward to seeing what you come up with. John
