Image result for ends of the earth

I penned a thousand lullabies 'bout you Yet your lashes closed, tender To the ends of those songs ... You whispered sacred secrets to my name Tied bright bows of dalliance To the ends of each breath ... Deep in your eyes my wand'ring soul resides For I followed them homeward To the ends of the earth. ~ 2nd Place ~ in the "Brian's Select 7, Any Form, Any Theme" Poetry Contest, Brian Strand, Judge & Sponsor. ~ 2nd Place ~ in the "Pick A Title, Vol 11 - Kimo" Poetry Contest, Edward Ibeh, Judge & Sponsor.
