Orchard's Melody: a Love Remembered

The kiss of an Autumn’s Orchard.
The peaceful land welcomed two young hearts.
Entwining their fates amidst the trees.
Underneath Apple’s Sweet Sign.

Maid With Azure-coloured Eyes.
A young fellow who dreamt as far as the blue of the sky.
The latter went along willingly with hopeful eyes.
In the arms of the orchard where love often lays itself down.

Underneath the warm kiss of the golden sun.
In the finesse of warmth they plucked ripe apples.
Every touch –a whispered secret promise.
Thence, love took flight beneath the bough.

Their laughter shook among the whispered leaves.
Like Autumn’s Sleeves, and Their Love.
However, the whims of fate may be harsh.
It play’d the fool in love’s tender garden.

The winter’s chill swept through the world.
They went through many obstacles for this.
A separation, an endless divide,
Love is whispered as they spoke their loving words in the orchard’s side.

The seasons fled by and left broken hearts.
Love in Sorrowful Paths.
The gleam of the orchard was reflected in her eyes.
Attached to a dying dream?

The embers of love gradually dimmed passing into several years.
They had to journey separately in their world.
However, when the orchard’s leaves grew golden.
Timeless And Brave Memory Of Love’s Love.

And now, under the apple tree’s branches.
Two souls united in memory,
Love Gone but Not Forgotten.
Serenade of love in the orchid’s heart.

In the arms of dusk.
They live on in a never-ending grace.
Whispers of the orchards’ songs passed on through time.
Eternal, Sublime And Divine Love.
