Love and words There awoke in me, on a night enlightened by magnificent starlight, Fancies for poetic pursuit in the name of love. And for this autumn-haired, Spring-eyed beauty of sweet unawareness. I became a romantic, for all intents and purposes. And bowed as a Knight to be his maiden in waiting. I was taken, I was subdued and held prisoner. I was willing. In her heart were the moist soild of Eden. Full of music not heard since the day Love was cast upon the world. I took her hand and splashed the grass with me melting, Saw angels under the gospel of her voice. I was no longer just a man, but a vessel of poetry. And I finally knew what it was to be alive. To inhale love, to exhale words, to truly breathe Like sonnet venturing from the page.
