For true love is exquisitely pure.

Oh sweet melody
Oh sweet nectar
Rush, with conviction
Sing to me

Ignite the crimson in my heart
Illuminate the unknown stills of night

Captivate purple mountains
Rejuvenate lakes and shores
The flame of our waiting passion
Shines, a solid ore

Paint nights with endless rivers
Melt away the chill of brittle walls
With the warmth of true affections
As two hearts embrace surrender
And take, a final fall.

  • Anne Lyken Garner on Jan 29, 2009

    I liked this one, perhaps more than I’ve liked all the others you’ve done (which I’ve read). It maintains the same pace throughout. The added ‘refrain’ in the middle serves it well too.

    The structure is good, and the rhythm easy to keep up with.

  • Lily River on Jan 29, 2009

    I agree with Majic! Your poem was absolutely lovely as usual! I want a copy of your first book. Keep on writing.
