A Climb...


[

A Climb to a point beyond reach…
Touching the soaring reaches of sky
As doves in exalted circles fly
Through aisles of orange and white sunlight.

As thou, my love, lay enchambered 
In wonders, alone along the edge 
Listening as the sighing clouds stretch 
To embrace the horizon's offer.

Whilst stone-gowned choirs of chanting rock 
Ripple in tiers of chiming granite, 
Singing of earth to other planets,  
Building their songs from within your ears.

It is here the world witnesses you
In unblinking cloud and watchful stone,
In every mindful star enthroned
In the deep, wide stare of every mile.

As doves gently escalade the currents 
In whispered scales of soundless flight,
Spiraling through fields of sculptured light 
On wings conducted by songful winds.

Seeing them rove this heaven within 
The light behind your dove-filled eyes. 
This endless moment molded by 
The rare perfection of your thought.

Rising,  lifting,   into the open
The source of sky raining these heights: 
Essence of lovers who reunite,
Drawing all into their knowing.

Lovers created for the sake of love
No other desire of heaven than this.
The sole reason the stars exist
Burning merely for a glimpse of love.

Only for this reunion soul endures
As lovers dream this rare fortune
To join the heights and depths, the moon
And sun, the stars and mountaintops.


The heights and depths swiftly dissolving,
Dovetailed within the passion growing
From the heart, melting time,  flowing -
Over in a life begetting kiss.



Unrolling like an electric bolt 
Of blue silk; soul's vast motion streaming
Forth from spirit's infinite dreaming, 
Luxuriously draping this world 

Streaming above this sceptered place
Like facets arraying a jewel.
Glints of wonder teeming with renewal
Upon countless wings of diamond.



The relentless ascent of this passion 
Conquering distance in their knowing,
Rivers in canyons overflowing
Singing with a love that mounts the sky

Their tight embrace molding time’s substance
Into structures of grace, eidolons 
Conceived from the ecstasies of suns
Flaming inside the hearts of lovers.

A Climb to a point beyond reach…
Touching the soaring reaches of sky
As doves in exalted circles fly
Through aisles of orange and white sun

This climb the long attaining
To a deeply hoped for rendezvous;
To once more behold the divine view
Of an unforgettable lover.  

Lovers created for the sake of love
No other desire of heaven than this.
The sole reason the stars exist
Burning merely for a glimpse of love

As thou, my love, lay enchambered 
In wonders, alone along the edge 
Listening as the sighing clouds stretch 
To embrace the horizon's offer 

Unrolling like an electric bolt 
Of blue silk; soul's vast motion streaming
Forth from spirit's infinite dreaming, 
Luxuriously draping this world 
  
Whilst stone gowned choirs of chanting rock 
Ripple in tiers of chiming granite, 
Singing of earth to other planets,  
Building their songs from within your ears 

It is here the world witnesses you
In unblinking cloud and watchful stone
In every mindful star enthroned
In the deep, wide stare of every mile

As doves gently escalade the currents 
In whispered scales of soundless flight,
Spiraling through fields of sculptured light 
On wings conducted by songful winds 

Streaming above this sceptered place
Like facets arraying a jewel.
Glints of wonder teeming with renewal
Upon countless wings of diamond.

Their tight embrace molding time’s substance
Into structures of grace, eidolons 
Conceived from the ecstasies of suns
Flaming inside the hearts of lovers 

Only for this union soul endures
As lovers dream this rare fortune
To join the heights and depths, the moon
And sun, the stars and mountaintops

The heights and depths swiftly dissolving,
Dovetailed within the passion growing
From the heart, melting time,  flowing -
Over in a life begetting kiss.
