Transfiguration of Love

Hazel skies and navy depths Peer at the poor and plain Rough almonds turn to bars of gold Under the fall of that gaze Ivory bands of comfort and warmth Hold a heart that remains true The soft flit of butterfly wings Stir with thoughts of you Darkness beckons with longings lost Melancholy begs you stay The silken honey of sorrow's tears Cascade as you fade away A ghost between us survives the past Unkept memories smile, full of unease You are loves labour lost A haven in stormy seas
