Panagiota Romios Poet Free verse

Reaching For the Romios Star

Don't tell a soul!
There's a special star in the sky!
The future home for my love and I.
The outside is tanzanite, sapphire
and lapis lazuli.
Its door is blue chalcedonyn with a 
cosmic handle of white moonstone.
Who loves moonstone?
Why I do, you silly!

You'll carry me in, wearing your
"Fustanella!"
The one I saw you dance in, that
created in my heart, an eternal love 
thunderstorm.
And we will remain soul-alive, in our 
eternal Romios Star..
Existing in our sparkling home,
Romios.
Indeed, the only luminous blue
and white star in the sky.
Oh, so glorious.

* Fustanella-part of a Greek
costume, that is worn by dancers
and Evzones, the Greek Presidential 
Guard. 
It's white and similar to a kilt
(I suggest research on this one.)
No simple explanation on this fascinating 
topic.
