The Secret Eden

The fecund
Poem nurtures the soul…
Remaking
The secret Eden in her
Own image

Heartbeat of the gods…
The mystery of a perfect
Smile revealed

Beyond the limits
Of freewill, you flowered
Along with the roses…
The unspoken language
Of desire ingrained

You sing
The dreamtime melody…
Golden dawn

You share
The pulse of my rib…
This precious gift
Of love in the inner garden
Of dreams

The angelic face
Of the moon in focus…
Smiling Eve

Then the quest
For the perfect stanza begins…
The Odyssey
Of the enchanted spirit
Of the realm

You seize
The glorious moment…
Cultivating
The fertile crescent of my
Soul with glee
