the bright copper stand
reflecting fire-like
‘cross the mirrored lake
mimicking the blaze
scorching my heart
my burning love
for only you
nor the night sky
deep and vast
freckled sterling
above our heads
that precious moment
when first we kissed

Well, pucker up, brother, you scored again. Your fikrst stanza is killer. Nice to see that most of us have overlooked the dystopian mantle of our current lives
for today, and reinforce the romantic, the joyful .
Thank you Glenn. I try to avoid the ugly the best I can.
freckled sterling, great phrase and a breathtaking photo.

Thank you Phillip!
fine tribute to an old girlfriend
Thank you Larry.
ah the incurable romantic!
The unstoppable believer Kate, thats the incurable romantic — that’s one bad dude because he is driven by love power, by positivity — the complete feeling that he can! That nuclear baby!!
The blaze in the first stanza is astounding, Rob, as is the gorgeous description of the night sky in the second stanza – great use of juxtaposition!
It is the duality of great powerful love Kim. The hot and the cold the high the gold and the sterling… and the love, the powerful competed circle of love — duality is a completeness, it embraces it all — the good the bad / happy sad, / the warrior the lover. The power / the weakness — Powerful in the completeness.!
Wow, this is beautiful and “frecklef sterling” such an elegant phrase
Much??????love
