Love Poetry: Forever

by Nicole Vanasse
(Kenora, Ontario, Canada)

'Thy Beloved
Thy Darling
Thy Friend
Thou Art and
I are meant to be
Hearts and Souls intertwined
Forever

Thy love is that of
The Sun
Warm
Devoted
Eternal
Forever

Take Thy hand O
Beautiful One
For night has
Draweth near
Thy Moon bathes us with
Her soft light
Stars sparkle like that of
Diamonds spilled
Across Thy night sky

Come with Thee
O Daughter of Zion
Run with Thee
Through the city
Streets to the
Temple courtyards
Where we shall bind
Our love
Seal our fate
Forever

Into the night
We run
As crickets and frogs
Sing their twilight
lullabies
Past the city square
Into the vineyard
Tender green vines
Sweet fragrances of
Purple grapes and
Jasmine surround us
Thy King-Lover
And I
Forever

I lay Thy head on
His chest
The beating of our
Hearts is that
Of the most loveliest
Melody our
Souls shall dance to
Forever

Oh how I delight
In Thee!
Thy love is that of
Bittersweet wine
I am sick! so
Dunk with love!
With each breath
Till Thy last
I shall love Thee
Thy beloved
Thy Darling
Thy Friend
Forever'
