"By contrast…Lo! The Flint to Steel By spark to flame Their thoughts reveal That He the Metal She the Stone Had cherished secretly Alone." In awed respect Flickered a flame In thoughts for capture None to blame For in their spirit’s Restless flight Their flame grew on Brighter…Bright The nights were tasted Theirs to own As daylight fades It’s shadowed form They stole another Blissful eve Because they chose To believe. As metal drapes Itself to stone In ecstasy They’re not alone For lovers / friends Eternal plight Is live for days To love for nights. With purloined rhythm Hearts beat close They loved till dawn As sun arose Flint to Steel Their Metal honed Content once more…for days alone.

A very fine spiritual,and metaphorical write, Susan
You have perfected the art of conveying emotion and passion
in symbolic form and dress
Very compelling picture cements the theme
