Even in the darkest of times, light penetrates to gift hope.

And that hope has saved many a life, as it oft is divinely sent.

Meant To Be, Therefore Will Forever Last Heaven was her first soft, passionate kiss Begging, beg I for more, far more of this Night's splendor, in her silk covered bed Treasure, promise that one day we would wed Live out our lives, loving our Fated trek Without her this poor soul would be a wreck. Heaven was her laugh, her beaming bright smile Her perfume, her traveling in grand style Her pretty tanned face, those sexy legs Such rare beauty would make any man beg Blessing that we were matched as a pair Destined to our married lives share. Heaven was her asking me on a date Some say mere chance, I call it Hand of Fate In life we are blessed, oft know not why Love comes as a gift from Heavenly sky I believe our love was Heavenly cast Meant to be, therefore will forever last. Heaven sent me a sweet angel divine. Our lives blessed and as romance defines. Robert J. Lindley, 12-31-2020 Romanticism, ( When Fate finally gaveth of its golden treasures ) Note: Seeking to end this year on a high note I decided to compose a new poem about The dear blessing, the true love of my life I know this very dark and tragically sad year, Has brought from me many dark poems- Yet this last poem of this depressive year Shall be one of hope, blessing, romance, family and a gift that was most assuredly Heaven sent. My darling beautiful wife, and our blessed Family. My blessing of Being a poet and having the honor to Gift words unto this world, with the hope That such helps others and may inspire New, young writers to venture forth, write And thus give of heart and soul to benefit others. If so- my time spent was not in vain.

Thank you my friend. Well, I did take a bit of leeway in who actually did the asking. As poets that goes with the territory. Wishing you a happy New Year my friend. God bless..
