Celestial Bonds - just for you, Yuriko my Love. XXOO - Stars align in silent song,
Love's light travels long.
Eyes meet, skies apart,
Binding beat of two hearts.

Night's canvas, lovers' guide,
In constellations, secrets hide.
Across the void, feelings dart,
Starlight bridges heart to heart.

Anton Jarvis · Charge Of The Light Brigade by Alfred Lord Tennyson -- At the Battle of Balaclava in 1854 during the Crimean War, the ‘Light Brigade’, consisting of British cavalry regiments, charged down a narrow valley against Russian Troops who had captured British guns. The Russians were at the end of the valley as well as on each side of it. The attack should never have been made, for it had no chance of success: It was due to a blunder brought on by misunderstanding an order sent by the commander-in-chief. The obedience and courage of the soldiers, of whom less than a third survived won great fame for the Light Brigade. This poem first appeared on December 9, 1854 in The Examiner.

Yuriko - Elocutionist - Two hearts empty in a river,
Where love goes no one knows. ~ by Florida Joe

Elocutionist

Pantera!!

Pantera!!

I see you in your dark place, Hibernating with your eyes aglow with white love, waiting. calling. I come to you and kiss you gently on your lips and look at you with love. You call me again and again. I come to you each time and place my lips upon yours and I whisper I love you. You finally awake into light and you hug me and call my name. People arrive and I disappear. ~LArry

You too, my mother, read my rhymes

For love of unforgotten times,

And you may chance to hear once more

The little feet along the floor.
