Understanding

Last updated on February 19, 2023

Eyes aglow like fire-bathed moonlight
Face shining as if dawn was near my beloved’s soul broad as the whole Earth
Such resplendence beholds my dear.

Her ruddy cheeks are children of love and her nose sits calmly square
Her smile, most of all, warms cold everywhere.

I am beyond grateful, beyond the realm of luck;
To have her so near and to know love knows no fear
Finally to know, to feel, to hear, to understand love.
