Katherine and I wrote this sestina recently because I asked her if she would like to try she picked up the style so quickly and I am indebted to her for considering me it was nice but i'd much rather kiss her lolololol


The Eden of Our Hearts a cowrite by Katherine lockhart and M.A.Meddings

Our love is found in the soft warmth of a summer breeze
So tenderly there in the pleasure of your gentle touch 
And in darkest hours it lingers where limpid streams do flow
My heart to yours this day forgone my soul my life my love
Then in the deep surrender for you all I have to you enthrall
A love so deep so gently pure far beyond the realms of passion  

Inside devotion dwells the wellspring of this passion
A cascading mist that moistens and sends a fragrant breeze
Across the face of infinity, an ethereal kiss to enthrall
Two hearts beating in timeless accord enlivened by its touch
Together reaching harmonic bliss created by our endless love
Which sings a crystal chorus that in our fervent ardor doth flow

In this heart of mine where gentle thoughts do flow 
Desire so real and wrought by all my passion 
For the gracious soul that holds me now guardian in her love 
As the scents from oft far Shalimar come floating on the breeze
taking us up to this paradise enthroned within her touch
And my love's gift now is her joy of  me her smile will yet enthrall

In rapture, I surrender, captive into your  enthrall 
Like the pristine streams of a  love pool  sweetly flow
I am christened by your caring, blessed by your tender touch
Awakened to your spirit, lifted to heights of dreamed passion  
For we walk among the clouds sailing songs upon the breeze
Whispering soft melodies, singing of our eternal love

And in this Eden of our hearts, we peacefully love
As an angelic aria sends heaven's music to enthrall
We are lifted to elation, carried by this sweetest breeze
Floating across our heartstrings as fervent feelings flow
Alive in this completion, enveloped by an endless passion
We join in perfect union surrendered unto love's  sweet touch

This wondrous dream enshrined within your loving touch
As you take me in your arms once more to symbolise our love
Far beyond the realms we knew far beyond this passion
A yearn for us to be but one in caring love enthrall
As I give myself unto thee and hear the love song flow
Wafted high on light and warming summer breeze

Then pleasure in your gentle touch burgeon to my love enthrall
As captive in this purest love, our hearts enraptured flow
Thus founded in this life is passion brought to us on summer breeze

:) this is a BEAUTIFUL text, and one more proof - if it was needed - that the two of you are a brilliant couple of poets! you have a lot of similarities in your styles, and the feelings generated from this lovely sestina shows it one more time...

It is such a pleasure reading your co-writes they flow so freely, and as a reader I do not stumble once .... a beautiful flow is the mark of your poetry, in union and in each of you on your own ... so reading what you write together makes the flow twice as pleasurable ...

it certainly is a poem carried by "the warmth of a summer breeze"

very beautiful and as it flows so rythmically I would say it is technically as it should ... even though I do not have a clue on how to write a Sestina ... but it must be perfect as this poem does not stumble once as I read...

well done you two ...

best wishes
