A simple line of tree top blush
on painted skies which now perform,
unfolding twilight’s majesty
in balanced view of moments born
~for lonely hearts a foot path makes,
in vision’s quest and sonnet breaks~
Beneath these branches draped of leaves
and cedar scents to fill the mind,
to cast a glance of northern flow
awaiting this which we do find
~a watch face offers in its stare,
a different look yet time to share~
How bright this crown does now appear
above the rim of lost regrets,
igniting lover’s wakened hopes
beyond the shadowed silhouettes
~anticipation breathes in flight,
awash in this sweet glow tonight~
For of this breeze, illumined love
in lighted bloomed chrysanthemum,
enchanted kisses destined flow
on stardust highways formed as one
~so listen close on feelings meant
and hear these words of love now sent~
As on this night a light does see,
as two hearts dance the evening’s show,
reaching for that full moon waltz,
before our eyes, melodic glow
*~as I now whisper this to you,
forever will my heart be true~
