Reflections of Love

                                                     
                                                       I
                                                  see you
                                                  far away
                                              in the distance
                                  reflecting my love's illumination
                           conquering the dark shadows in my heart
                                              you draw closer
                                                  ever near
                                                   you see
                                                      me
                                                    Peace
                                                  and light
                                                dwell within
                                               united hearts
                       our lighthouse of love shines bright in this world

Thanks Jan, shape is a result of enforced syllable count rules, but it is an interesting form that I'm kind of liking. Thanks again. John
