The Eden of Our Hearts (sestina co write with Michael Meddings)
Our love is found in the soft warmth of a summer breezeSo 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
