Lands unseen are always best--
Landscapes in your mind--
Blessed Islands gleaming west

Portals of  haunting   lovers nigh


Etched loves notes

Neath each hallows moon, whispers in glades you hear

I love you


Intricate each portal of time

Hazy opaque desires light, in towers shine and the spirits play

Each given ineffable, lasting hearts

Lovers eyes drift

To feel his love rose cliff notes...
