Michael Degenhardt Poet Rhyme

There They Lie

Unbridled passion in field there show
As lovers face to hold and kiss
Left to thine own eyes to know
What’s meant by sharing lover’s bliss

Albeit then the sun descends
Upon the two who lie and sleep
As dreams enact and bodies mend
I watch and wait, while there they keep

The one true sign of love, they sleep
Embraced in hold, each other to keep

Donna Golden January 30, 2009 at 1:27 PM You seem to have mastered the love poem, Michael. This one portrays a sense of security in the union that I think we all desire. Nicely done. Donna G.

John Loving Iii January 30, 2009 at 10:34 AM so much in a phrase "Each other to keep" just an implied given that poetry presents as you present it here. the spritual contract, the promise the thing in which we put our faith. the beliefe that we keep each other. good work. John H Loving III
