A special world

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

To my heart's keeper

Amorous pools sable and deep
Set lightly upon lustrous smile
Thy moonlit skin my heart doth keep
Stow’d away upon distant isle
Evermore to serve thy desire
Thy will my own ‘till I retire

A word, a phrase, to part thy lips
If only a whisper received
Force unmatched by one thousand ships
Seraphic design ‘ways believed
Speak unto my eternal soul
And place it under thy control

Bitter blow of love

Love! you dealt a bitter blow
You lay me cross the mortal plains,
Bedewed, bedimmed amongst a show
Of tearful clouds; eternal rains
To weep at my enduring foe


Of harsh reality; searing pains of
Destiny: dependable propensity
To fool myself repeatedly,
That I could ever triumph over love!
