LVX CREARE

I wrote this for Valentines day some years ago, I felt it at the time.

The sun is setting in the west
and weary heads are laid to rest
upon the pillows, between the sheets
the falling breath, the twin heart beats

the birds are roosting in the trees
across the lake, a cool, clear breeze
and in the darkness of the night
the arms entwined, the feeling right…

I know it’s early, but I’ve never had much to celebrate on February 14th.

I remain, however; a hopeless romantic.
