Speed of Light

I will hold you and you will know Just how much I love you As our hearts grow brighter With every shooting star, We are making wishes come true Winking in the skies of midnight blue In our own galaxy, love moves instantly At the speed of light because, We know this was meant to be right Heidi Sands 11/27/18

"In our own galaxy" - you have described love PERFECTLY in these 4 little words. I may have to borrow them for my own poem with your permission.

Hello Dear Heidi, I really like your new free verse write here!! Quite romantic!!The theme notion of anything dealing with the speed of light usually is laden with scientific stuff and jargon. But the symbolism you've employed in your metaphoric references to "hearts growing brighter" and "every shooting star,"etc -- is marvelously done!! Great imagery too and a true treat to read, as always!! Cheers and Best, Gary
