The Symphony Of Love

Phases of love.

The Symphony Of Love.


Love comes to me
like a symphony of
melodious notes, of
compact connections.

It’s a single sun
with countless rays,
a single sky
of unnumbered rainbows.

Flowing like an endless river
from the tender hearts
of my loving parents,
it made me what I am,

self contained, refined
like spun gold.
Mom and dad!
you are the best.

The love of my life,
my partner the sojourner
on the unequal road
to lasting happiness,

is a person of precious
beauty from the outside
and in mind and heart
of matchless splendor.

All the trees and flowers
streams, cisterns and stately
mountains, the sea, the glowing stars
that sing of hope and joy
in the darkness of the night,
every single golden dawn
and twilight of spectacular
visual sensation; the unending
vistas of nature’s magnificence
bless me with loving beneficence,
turns my earth into a heaven of
freedom, of immortal beauty
perchance like God’s Paradise.
