Love
On the island of flowers
This day of spring
Frisky butterflies on heat
Sumptuous wings
Free spirits
In tender moments
Of absolute bliss
Bonding in secret places of
Beauty . . .

The distance, the neophyte finds
Himself adrift; withdrawing
From the society into a world
Of private thoughts and beauty

Listening to the
Autumn moon in the great
Moment of passion
With joyful lips and
Limpid eyes, she held my
Hand ever so gently… . . .
