Love Poem: Queen of Heaven

Queen of Heaven

You, my lovely queen
conqueror of my heart.
You are, and the stars attest,
such a beautiful spectacle.
Over the long winding years, 
you preserved nothing
as you risked everything for us.
The same way the moon
knows each star in the night,
there is no smile of yours
I do not know.
So many battles we've had
amazingly you found in each
A thousand ways to love me.
The ways of the gods
rule the heavens
The ways of man
rule the mountains
But your way, my queen
Rules my heart.
