Notes About The Poem

contest Mother, Magical, Moment

sponsor Constance La France

Moment

The world stopped when I searched your eyes
as clarity washed clearer
and what was before silently fell away
when I looked into the binding bond of wonder
and found nobility in your eyes
lush with a timeless moment of sensual serenity
   that bestowed a breathless pause
pulling me towards a softer realm
   to quench my thirsty soul
that has wandered romantic deserts
in search of ambrosial eyes of delicate seduction
   that pour like leaf-bearing dew
onto the barren ground of my lonely heart
so I may welcome the sprouting seed of love
found in the garden of my heartbeat
   where emotion has flowered
to awaken my silent passion from slumber
and welcome a quiet calm of surrender
   when your eyes invited me to stay
and we were both lost in the moment
