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

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.

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
