Absence makes the heart grow fonder,
o’er hills and vales,distances,yonder
When two hearts beat as one tonight,
I see Cupid, laughing in delight…

For love doth conquer trivial things
Like distance, ’tis but a number
And cupid with his lovely wings,
Smiles as he wishes you a fitful slumber…

And tonight as we gaze at that star,
Together,unknown, a yearning sigh,
And wish for love, love, not war
Unbeknownst to us,the hour draws nigh…

When wishes and prayers, and a little hope
Will come true, in but a little while,
For I can see, with my mind’s telescope,
Cupid, Smiling that happy smile…

A sunset

I watch a sunset, its shades a hundred,
In various hues, orange and red,
A tangerine glow, a metallic gold
Vermilion some days, a crimson bold…

A carmine red, some days it does feel,
A satin peach, on the horizon there
A blazing scarlet, or an orange peel
Sometimes it turns amber,as i stare..

When clouds cover it, in purple haze,
When i just can’t see it on rainy days
It burns in an arid desert blaze
It burns and burns, in so many ways…

As the city basks, happily, in the afterglow
Of a glorious sunset, this i know
The wonders of a sunrise await me now,
Before His majestic landscapes i bow…
