Notes About The Poem

When love arrests two hearts, it soon reaches for handcuffs improvised from wedding rings and links of passion

Two Twinkles On Love's Sky

Each day that we live let’s soar to the night sky
on the mighty wings of dreams,
And there let’s pick the stars one by one and drop
them to earth below.
Then let us awake to find we have not the stars
but only each other!

For captives of mutual love we are, two twinkles on 
sweet love’s sky;
By no fees and no keys shall we be freed while
death spares his snatching hand.
For what force in truth can cleave our sweet captor’s
chains,
These dear chains of wondrous make, with beauteous
ends of wedding rings and links of strongest passion?
