Reaching For Love

Reaching for love Mountain top wishes in echoing fashion Whispers in sonnets afloat on the sky Soothing the emptiness fraught with distraction Sifting through clouded views wandering by Northern horizons in tangerine ribbons Sing in a melody sweet to the ears Heavenly callings from faraway places Drying the flow of my every day tears Painting a landscape of pure understanding Inside the dark fades a much softer hue Nature reduced to its tiniest fragments Illumined, the feelings I hold here for you Narrow the tree line of dreams comes to offer Shadows beneath every beckoning star Finding a moonbeam aglow in its wisdom Reaching for love now where ever you are Good night Soupers

"Whispers in sonnets afloat on the sky" -- All five of the great English Romantic poets should be beaming from the sky at that line alone … The whole poem is simply magnificent. A FAVE! ~ Gershon

If I look out my back glass doors, this is the vision I would see - all but the lover. Beautiful, as usual, Chris.
