Sally Eslinger Poet Prose Poetry

LOVE LYRICAL a Devotion Series Poem for Us

Play only love songs
For tonight’s starshine hours,
   with  its winking 
Constellations all
Hailed
And wished upon 

To make this night completely
Ours  ~
   and keep love’s longing
Lasting  
Here within us
Near
   enough to
Touch
Smiles
  
While our wooing words turn into
    gifts of kisses 
Re-living our first embraces
    with  hearts pulsing
Music

       Now
Freely composing itself 
     for our time yet to come 
Living in a choral harmony
    with love’s true verses
Coursing rivers
Amidst the patient rythms of
Lasting 
Eternity…
