Re Awakening

Alone candle light in the abyss of darkness 
Yet words are woven in creations of your smile, 
The sweetest words are those not said intense timeless 
When in your embrace one melts to your unique style. 

Your flame renewed kindle in sweet resurrection 
Emerald eyes that glow in lust of perfection, 
Can but dowse puritan thoughts with insurrection 
Rebellion is kindled in this new affection

Fires of passion the candle lit the abyss
To burn forever more in the flame of true love
To melt in your arms with the promise of a kiss
The iron hand now firmly in the velvet glove

Love like this has never before been given birth 
My life my love this is your awakened loving worth

aha, it sounds like one for the love letter contest!! Very sonnet-esque, mandy!! I enjoyed seeing you portrayed as Carol Burnette on that blog of Cyndi's. You have her humor and tender heart.

So many wonderful lines, each one a poem in itself. My favorite "The iron hand now firmly in the velvet glove". Very deep an meaningful passion
