~Neither perpendicular Nor parallel~ Vertex has become the node for us where a leaf

when moon glow overrides darkest of emotions in
separation by sun beams filtering light interceding
once again for the branching of evolution on a higher
plane when we will wear our rings above our heads

A most revealing poem, Vivian. The separation and lifestyle being what it is until passion or rekindled love fuses the two together. The halo's are a stark reminder of what is, or has, taken place.
