VIRTUE’S FLAME

Oh sweetest virtues
sensational gifts we choose
to delicately seek and find
undenied by fountains in time
the moments evermore are spilling
inside nacreous songs of surrender
where the silent lark whispers and whispers:
bending and defending her muse in pleasure:

“Come away with me Etheria!!! My heart belongs to you
We shall seek across the horizons
beatitudes of Egyptian sands forever true
…you will see the reflective visions
…oh sweetest destiny with thee
I dance with your carnations
and the rose petals from garden’s tree….”

Oh sweetest grace of virtue’s flame
My heart belongs to the blossoms rue
Sloping across the valley often hidden
…falling deeper and deeper
In love with you…
