from the book Beloved Spirit
Treasure a love that burns so fine
It defies the rule and passage of time;
Deeper than the sea, softer than a song,
Desire sees no fault in rapture sublime.
Like a single white star emerging at night
In the vastness of an immortal joy,
The dream will survive in eternal love,
No human error or death may destroy.
Pure silken threads lace the heavens’ line
In homage to the dying crimson sun;
And the light carries the heart beyond all grief
To a love, undenied, two souls as one.
