It wasn't love at first sight. <br />Moon exploding <br />In symphonic skies. <br />Or <br />White glowing <br />Shooting star bright. <br />Like dreams escaping in disguise. <br />No. <br />I loved you <br />Before candlelight <br />Gave you to my eyes. <br /> <br />Long before we would touch. <br />I felt your hand, <br />As mine would clutch <br />Just the notes <br />On a vagrant breeze. <br />Singing solo, <br />My harmonies, <br />Were tinkling waters <br />And silent daughters <br />Of nature. <br />Always to dance and sway. <br />In perfumed sunstruck array. <br />You see <br />I loved you anyway. <br /> <br />Before the kiss <br />Would brush with bliss <br />My heart. <br />With feather and trembles. <br />Blind love <br />A Goddess resembles. <br />Like an arrow <br />Through the soul. <br />I felt a blue drum roll <br />As horizons awoke. <br />And my spirit spoke <br />To yours. <br />Still behind closed doors <br />Fate stopped the clocks. <br />And we flew with flocks <br />Above. <br /> <br />No. <br />It wasn't <br />Love at first sight. <br />But whispered promises <br />Between deepest red sunset <br />And the sleepy head of dawn. <br />Where a birdsong minuet <br />Knew our sunrise <br />Would be born.<br /><br />Kevin East<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/blind-love-33/
