Love's Silky Stitched Lace

Silently love creeps into place casting fast shadows in the hall that if ignored, extend their sprawl. Cupid twirls to ambush our space. When our quit-dreams sit unprepared, then love commands its stand declared. With naught to influence love’s grace, it does seem we will never learn, thus, love blocks our wish to discern. Love will not move at our dreamed pace. It stays us baffled and confused. Our heart issues keep love amused. Love flies high when two find embrace so, love repeats its own story to mesh within heights of glory. Soft as love’s own silky, stitched lace are thankful, joined hearts for love’s prize as time customized to surprise. Silently love creeps into place cupid twirls to ambush our space. With naught to influence love’s grace, love will not move at our dreamed pace. Love flies high when two find embrace soft as love’s own silky, stitched lace. ... CayCay Jennings July 7, 2018

You honor me by creating this lovely Constanza CayCay. Love takes so many forms and can be so elusive, but once Cupid's arrow has met its mark there is no way to flee. Your last line "joined hearts for love’s prize as time customized to surprise." completes the puzzle for those in love....it often comes as a surprise! I love it CayCay...and you for writing a Constsnza! I know they are a bit of a challenge. Thank you....hugs, Connie xxoo : )

Ahhh, you did a constanza, Connie's form!! I bet she will adore this, Caycay. I love the theme you chose and the way you used the perfect metaphors. Was it your first constanza. If so, magnificent! I hope you are getting your messages from me. I plan to walk my dog in a few hours and will call first to see if you are available for a call!!
