PROMPT — What is Love?
Kissing under the
ascending moon
as it climbs
from behind
is the lover’s
dream.
It streams
in my mind, as
if I had
a river
of fantasies.
In my mind,
I yearn
for that day.
Like a sensual being,
lovely kisses
rattle my soul.
Goddess eyes
shine on me.
Love-bitten
with a touch
of heaven.
She was a radiant rose
of my radio heart.
We were scattered
across the ocean of love
like a message in a bottle,
so we thought.
Once we got wind of each other,
We feel into love’s pool.
A Jack and Rose
type of love
that lives on forever.
