Whispers of Light

Melodic laughter floats on the breeze
Fire light crackles and your eyes tease
Escaping embers glow, like whispers of light
They dance and hold us, this magical night

Nothing between us, our souls exposed
Twinkling stars - a new song composed
Whispers of light, grow hot and untamed
Tonight's promise, as of yet, un-named

For years now, it's been this way
Whispers of light, between us stay

Love.......

In Olympic fashion, I'll rate it a ten. Such a tribute to the love of an "older" couple. From 1912 until 1948, the Pentathlon of the Muses was an Olympic event - writers, painters, sculptors, architects and musicians were included. I vote for a revival.
