A stallion pure and thorough bred With sinewy limbs and a regal head Entranced a maiden:  coy, fragile Her naïveté peeking through her guile The touch of skin on skin, ablaze The arching back, the dreamy gaze Oblivious to the world around When hearts were lost and hearts were found They rode around without a care With hair afloat a back stripped bare Through wind and water, sky and sand They trod the depth and breadth of land Love melding with the sunset's hues With ochres, crimsons, lilacs, blues She held him firm as 'e sprinted on Her hands alive on 'is rippling brawn Both breathless, panting, fit to drop By a trove of aspen, came to stop They laid down on the cooling grass And watched the stars in heaven's pass. The moments' magic, in their midst Where gift of fate their presence kissed The sound of stillness filled the air To interject , neither could dare In the conversations of the souls No words suffice, nor phrases hold Each secret there that instant shared All love exchanged, and none was spared. By the morning sun, came duty's hail And both knew what devoirs entail To be with each , although they longed Of different earths, their loam belonged They thought, they planned, they tried devise But union came at a selfish price In a firm embrace they held on tight Accepting it was a time not right And bravely to departure led Through aching ******* good byes were said A part of each, with the other sent For a farewell isn't where love should end So holding on their transformed heart On the stage of life, resumed their part And each then took their separate way no matter what, wherever they stay for rest of time, they had had that day for rest of time, they had had that day!

What stays, what goes
A stallion pure and thorough bred With sinewy limbs and a regal head Entranced a maiden:  coy, fragile Her naïveté peeking through her guile The touch of skin on skin, ablaze The arching back, the dreamy gaze Oblivious to the world around When hearts were lost and hearts were found They rode around without a care With hair afloat a back stripped bare Through wind and water, sky and sand They trod the depth and breadth of land Love melding with the sunset's hues With ochres, crimsons, lilacs, blues She held him firm as 'e sprinted on Her hands alive on 'is rippling brawn Both breathless, panting, fit to drop By a trove of aspen, came to stop They laid down on the cooling grass And watched the stars in heaven's pass.
