No World Without Thee

A scent of gardens fills our bed

To thy roses and lilies I am led

No sand or stone nor steely rim

The earth no more than thy soft skin

Thine eyes contain both sea and sky

In thy deep gaze I'm drifting by

To taste thy world is beyond a dream

In our shadowed garden, a lover's scream

As my river floods thy trembling form

Thy sigh’s sweet wind doth make earth warm

Oh thy gardens so bright above

There is no world without thee, my love...

Author's Note

"We lie in each other’s arms
eyes shut and fingers open
and all the colors of the world
pass through our bodies like strings of fire."
~Marge Piercy

Sounded like a hymn, sung for the paradise..
The words turn into melodious harmony, when its touched by love..
Ravished the gradual words..

You could see it... feel it as it was confessed. Yes, a sacred hymn of loving. Thank you for seeing the words from the soul.
