On the Night Breeze

Love finds you yet 
   when the sun sets
 in hues of gold
 A hand to hold

  In moon's  soft glow
   Love finds its flow
 hearts will soon find
 love sweet and kind

 Stars gleam at night
   Shines with love's light
 souls will find bliss
 when they share kiss

 Skies are in tune
   with glow of moon
 Sweet song of love
 Songs of the dove

 On the night breeze
   sways the oak trees
 Soft is the sound
 As love is found

 Stars will shine bright
   Love will take flight
 Songs of the heart
 right from the start

 Clocks seem to stop
   hearts reach the top
 Time stands so still
 with love's sweet thrill

 Hugs warm and tight
   love at first sight
 with lull-a-byes
 so soft the sighs

Very well written, Joseph. Also very constricting format, proof of your talent:) It's been so long since I've had that feeling, I barely remember. Your poem is the perfect reminder.

guess I was wrong. WEnt back to read his contest page and it's not required to give 128 words as title, but I am seeing people do it!
