Love Poem: Stunned

Stunned

Burnished bronze gateways,
to your innocent inner soul.
Flecked in sun spawned flakes, 
Heavens Devine living gold,

Wisdom’s lasting serenity, 
etched in patinas of dusty jade,
Softly pouted lips, finally smiling, 
without semblance of charade.

Obsidian locks cascading, 
like a spring fed mountain stream.
Alabaster skin was sculpted, 
from an angelic ethereal dream.

Nuances of mischief dancing,
tint cheeks, a pale rosed blush.
Melting a long ice wound heart,
in fantasies warming rush.

From behind the unasked question,
like twilights final reprieve.
Transcendental pleasures,
angelically conceived. 

Pondering chances of happiness,
a new life I shall finally realize.
Exorcising histories forlorn daemons,
that conspired my terran demise.

Perhaps side by side and together,
in the stillness of spirits gloaming.
Seeking that which can’t be measured,
A pair of hearts, no longer roaming..
