Spring Enchantment a love poem

Spring Enchantment (a love poem)


As wisps of clouds creeped
overhead before a storm moving quickly east,
the moon lay down his vanilla beams 
to dispel the darkness hiding our bared feet — 
set side by side — romantically
touching for warmth, for love, for eternity,
hopefully, to envelop us, like the coming rain
in our lives’ thundering, combined heartbeats
…joined into those duets passion will release
all about from the great springs of yearning.

Dear Sally, is a breathtaking ode to love and nature's beauty. The imagery of wisps of clouds, the moon's vanilla beams, and the impending storm sets a scene of intimacy and anticipation. I love how your words capture the essence of love's warmth and hope for eternity with such tender elegance. Your poem stirs emotions of passion and longing. It's a masterpiece that envelops the reader in the enchantment of spring and the magic of love's embrace. - Blessings, Daniel
