Reverberating Romantic History
Vibrantly thrilling...
such romantic experience prevails
as I recall those moments
when soul lingered in sublime ecstasy
midst delightful heartbeats
expressing joyous countenance---
blest indeed!
Reverberating with bliss…
such romantic story still reigns
as I picture the one-flesh* union
enclosed around fidelity-covenant
during assertion of marriage-vow
while eyes radiating with love
were glued to dearest darling.
Today lingering so vividly…
such romantic impact keeps me inspired
as I witnessed their love to blossom
beyond sweet honeymoon’s triumph
weathering marital struggles
cleaving to one another so intimately
as husband and wife, grateful to God.
Constantly cheering me…
such romantic history glows vividly
as I narrate Dad and Mom’s love story
ignited by faith-commitment’s cord
quenched decadence-coldness
by Christ’s caring warmth
sealing their “…Till death do us part…”
affirming “Be mine; I’m yours” partnership.
Moving me to testify joyously…
such romantic encounters enrich love-treasures
as I thank the Lord, the God of love
Who allowed Adam and Eve to enjoy
the first ever romance in its purest sense
to thrive along the Creator’s sovereign design
and here am I as a living proof.
