My Beloved

Hours
                                          with you
                                         persistent
                                   in my deep heart
                         until I feel my life ebbing away

                        If cycle of time stops revolution
                                      die peacefully
                                   swapping thoughts
                                           in thy
                                            eyes

Patri, congratulations on your win. Your verse had great imagery, flow, and a split for the second stanza. Hugs Eve
