The Sky In His World

 

He was mesmerized

       By her beauty,

Completely captivated

       By this splendid vision.

Her mere presence

        Inside his mind

Compares to hearing the ocean

       From a seashell.

He feels her heartbeat

       With hand on own chest,

Being his comforting reminder

       That his soul has a mate.

He appreciates the beauty

       Of her porcelain face,

Knowing it flows much deep

       Within her heart’s chambers.

Everyday he bathes in it

       Is an emotional baptism

That cleanses past heartaches

       Like sins forgiven.

The miles between them

       Are nothing more

Then stepping stones

       To the Garden of Eden.

Soon they will be standing as close

       As their hearts already are

And her breath will become

       His means of survival.

That will be the day      

       Heaven and earth merge

Within his world

       Making love the infinite sky.

I want to thank my muse for bringing this challenge and being the inspiration.

This a beautiful picture of love between two people, such a connection is hard to find, and when worlds collide in a fashion as this there is a reason they were put in each other's path...to be happiness together.
A lovely piece of writing cowboy! Your muse is a lucky woman;)

To feel so loved and to love so much is, as your last line says, like, ' .. Making love the infinite sky.' to feel so bound up with and within another person is sharing a heart .. as if your 'she' has made you feel whole and innocent again.

Beautiful.

[Narnie]

This is beautiful! Just what I would hope my honey feels when he gets
to share moments with me. I'm thinking all of us women would love this.
Well done and well crafted.

A muse is a good thing, I think this a poem of pure appreciation and a fearless soul it takes to allow such into their life.

The miles between them
Are nothing more
Then stepping stones
To the Garden of Eden.
