Lost in Romance

I dream to be

the consummate thought

that arches his brow,

 

 

the syllables of words

that lie in wait upon his tongue,

 

 

the heart that beats

in absolute symmetry with his,

 

 

the one he holds

forever in dance…

 

 

lost in romance.

Longing to be so much a part of someone that you 'live' in then is a fine testament to adoration. Lovely little love ditty Kelly.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you, John...how was your father's day?

[John Alexander McFadyen]

It was wonderful. Saw two of my kids and my daughter in law and had a lovely time.

That is beautiful Kelly and i'll bet you are all those things to him, every line is a work of art and belong in my library with so many of your works, just gorgeous :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

I appreciate that, Richard...thank you so much!

This is a dreamy write Kelly. The cherry on top (almost literally in choice of text colour) is that headline style first line. To be everyone's everything - what more gorgeous way to know that we are loved is there? I would argue, none. Romance beautifully penned Kelly.
Im glad this one found me this morning.
:)
