Together - Never Apart

TOGETHER – NEVER APART Sylvia and Stefan, sing in tune, together – never apart. Cradled upon the crescent moon, together – never apart. Witnesses of Sylvia’s lullaby – the angels and twinkling stars. Stefan holds her tight, croons all night, together – never apart. She completes his soul, with mirthful depth and beauty. His lilting voice causes her to swoon, together – never apart. They view the tilting earth with swirls of grass, soil, and sea. They discourse all night, with spoon hands, together – never apart. Even through twilight years, their souls pressed tight in firmness. Her hair shines silver, his gone too soon, together – never apart. One ornamental eve, Sylvia’s eyes too heavy, she slips from her chair. Stefan’s woeful rune, fingers embrace, together – never apart. 2/7/2017

Kim congratulations! You did a super job on this Ghazal. I have never written one. They appear to be very difficult, at least for me. Kudos! 7 ; )
