For Elizabeth….. #1
She stands before me, unadorned
Of artifice or raiment
My Love for her grows unabashed
It doth’ defies containment
Her eyes, they shatter me with grace
Setting my Heart ablaze
Calling to it to keep apace
With their inerrant gaze
My Soul, it’s yearnings ere’ abated
Now feels free to roam
Back from arid, desolate climes
It once considered home
My pain and anguish dissipate
Like mist within my core
Sparking to life a flame of Love
Which shall live
Evermore ……..
