O Love

Precious one! Dost thou know your
presence is the reason I am?
You are the answer my soul craved
I had plunged into the deep abyss;
Shadowing my empitness and pain
from the darkest of hours, though
mine eyes be blinded, my heart
saw the tiniest twinkle in the distance;
And as I began to believe,
thou had not forsaken me,
the light grew well ordered;
O, my beloved, you, light of my soul,
burst forward from the minuscule twinkle
to a magnificent shower of stars.
You, an "instrument of rhapsody",
forever cloaked in the sweetest of song,
lay before me, ever more inviting.

Your presence ravishes,
long vanished days
the deepest of my senses
and singing a song which mellows
more each time your kisses pluck the strings.
You, my my deep ocean of love, hath saved me.
I can do no less than utter theses murmerings
perhaps shout, "O LOVE! Sweet foliage exulted".

Might we, hand and hand, dance and twirl
before the heavens, singing of our joy
and spread LOVE to every corner of all worlds
prepared to fly forever,
following the moon?
