Hope UnboundedA barren, frigid cold gripped my heart.
Warmth lay far beyond my hopes.
My soul repeated a tragic refrain
of a heart like a denuded forest.
I followed the loneliest dance,
ever and always out of step…
again and again, twirled and whirled…
abandoned to the wasting cold.
I watched alone without hope of love
through the frigid fractals of despair
until that one shining gaze
from your laughing ebony eyes
melted the hyperborean grip.
A whispered kiss warmed my heart.
A fragile blossom opened in the snow.
In joy unbounded blooms our love.
Like breath upon the dandelion puff,
our love’s seed bears hope unbounded.
