Your Gravity Forever Changed

YOUR GRAVITY FOREVER CHANGED

		Year of the feather, magical time,
		two souls entangled, love is prime.

		Mystery is in her galactic eyes,
		they see across the abyss
		of time, recognize me.

		Sweet ambrosia, in one kiss
		Release such mortal pleasure.
		Venus in body and form,
		My cosmic treasure.

		Dark skies mean starlight
		where galaxies, you and I,
		collide; scattered light,
		I am fragmented by your
		gravity, forever changed.

NOTES:
	For the contest IT’S ALL ABOUT FOUR by Broken Wings, April 3/18. The theme of this piece is love woven on the backdrop of celestial references in a way that shows how love is a cosmic connection of galactic proportions.

A great write Phil. Interesting Tanka, it can be interpreted as a metaphor for working through troubles in a relationship.
