'tis Love

last night I heard the moon whisper in a hush so tender,
            “love…
             yes, ‘tis love-
as we laid to surrender in a gentle moment of splendor. 

we sat and counted stars until there was no more 
existence to gaze upon (embraced in affection)-
indulged in cosmos and saw the water treading upon 
venus with ease (bodies adjacent in warmth).

I thought of how you loved me without condition,
hands held without caution, only care and concern.

the sun rose and replied to the moon,
              “love
               yes, ‘tis perpetual love-”

and with promises of radiant yellow we shined into the 
morn glory, encompassed in dewdrops and the opening 
of white and tangerine lilies. 

for I am your undying ignited candle blazing on into the 
constellations we call home- 

                    "yes… ‘tis love, 
                              ‘tis love."
