Song of the Outpoured Lover
By Tim Kavi
When he came from lands far away
He beheld her grace, glory, and truth
He spoke to her with a final say
As she responded to him in her youth
Of love's outpoured song
Fully spent
For her love he did long
Cupid's arrow fully bent
And ready to be shot
A great iron in the fire
Burning white hot
His desperate song became desire
She responded from afar
With a smile of awareness
Of her bedroom door ajar
While lantern burned of fairness
Her beautiful skin glistened
In the light
Of her lover's song listened
Upon the silvery night
They both sought gentle repose
From the world's wild winds
When they did disclose
Their gentle love to best of friends
Who beheld the mystery
Of two made one
And the resulting liberty
Of love's victory won
Eternal smiles locked upon their faces
The power of love's outpoured song
No matter the people or races
The love song all boundary erases
Oh sweet lovers we live through you
Of daring places
To be and to be not few
Days until we behold your destiny's traces
Our love is made perfect in yours
No matter the time
Or on distant shores
Song of your outpoured rhyme.
