The Rubaiyat of ' Lenore's Love '

The - Rubaiyat of “ Lenore “ LOVE In a distant time of memories, swimming in a deep blue sea Floating with the clouds above , disguised as azure tapestry Forest eyes, gleaming in the evergreens, soothes the leaf of oak Gone; not Forgotten, my heart Forever yearning : entwines with she To live the life of Heaven, You hug the Trinity : Forever You Live Waiting for the eons of Eternity when I gather all the Love you have to give Forest eyes, gleaming in the evergreens, whispered words unspoken Seeing the Light, Feeling the Glory : yet Love’s blood; drips through a sieve One drop at a time , Cleansing the Soul ; reunite the true Hearts of LOVE Together again for a moment in the serenity of time which flies as a pure white Dove The Sunset smell of YOUR Auburn hair, the Chinese silk of YOUR skin Embedded in the bands of a Watch called : ‘ Eternity “ Never ending LOVE Embracing YOU Lenore, is like touching the hem of the Universe To gaze upon such “Elegant Beauty” ; Love creates an unquenchable Thirst As I watch YOU : Waltzing across the Horizon : Climbing the Stars to Heaven The Comet , Blushes : Red as Roses ; Nova dims : Cries : “ Why were You First “ Remembrance of our Youth ; “ Exuberant LOVE “ Prevails upon my Mind Your long Auburn Hair, tickles my Soul; In my HEART : Your Forever I Find And I Dream of the Forest : as YOU Illuminate it with YOUR “Emerald green Eyes” The Fern breathes Life; the leaves ENTWINE with Love Always : to which I am Blind Gaze upon Lenore and Your Heart does not skip a beat : You are not in Love, as I A kiss upon Her “ rose Lips “ a kiss of Eternity” a Kiss I may never know until I Die The encore that the Heart beats for, is the Overture of a Life Budding in GOD’S Grace Lenore : with all of Heaven’s Love Surrounding YOU each Day "an Image in my EYE" Inspired by the Contest “ Hey, Mr. Editor “ Sponsored by “John Heck” First 3 Stanzas Written on Feb. 27, 2011 ; Second 3 stanzas Written Mar. 2 2011 ~ More to come ~ Dedicated in Loving Memory of My Wife " LENORE " Honorable Mention
