The Quest of Hearts

Shadows of eve pass slowly by

 golden sun dips into the sea’s horizon
the owl accompanies the raven in song
and a blue moon eases upon the scene

  delicate sheets of mist cascades the air
giving a soft hue to the atmosphere
and there, in the quiet of the nightshade
a lovely maiden awaits her lover patiently

Into that golden horizon, they shall quest
to answer the questions that passion asks
because for them, real life does not begin
until their love has joined them as one.

Romantic picture and romantic words... I liked the 'delicate sheets of mist' - a fitting place to wait for the 'golden horizon'... for the passion that joins as one...

[An owl on the moon]

This is richly woven with sensual beauty and that sense of longing.. that questing desire when two melt into one.. Love the imagery here.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

You are the queen of roamtic poetry... lovely as always.
