'surreal Expectation'

looking at the crystal ball
maintaining an open mind
so loud the vernacular 
of love and ardor

          a promise without a word
                  expectation surreal
                    passion our barometer  
                      written in the stars

the two of us together
our hands entwined, binding hearts
identifiable beats 
in the crystal ball

Your "barometer" is truly heated with passion in this write, Wilma. Thoughts of young love and hope are so well expressed. As we get older, our minds are more closed. Best wishes in the contest, dear. Love, Carolyn
