Love is two pairs of footprints

   Impressed in the sand.

Will you ever walk beside me

   And together go home?


Love is sunlight that makes

   A flower turn its way.

Do you promise always

   To be a light for my soul?

~~~~~~~

I am your enthusiasm

That helps you learn a new thing.

I am your hand mirror

Beholding you on a bright morning.

I am your sandals

That caress your soft soles.

I am your prayer while you doze.

I am your blanket

Keeping you warm at night.

I am your luck that flies by day

To make sure things go right.

I am the djinni in your life

To stay near and keep you –

If only you knew.

~~~~~~~

Two streams that converge

   And flow inextricably

Are like two lovers

   Meandering about who meet -


Not knowing anything of what

   They were missing before

But now having full sight

   Each of the other -


Who rejoice at the freshet

   And meld and flow as one

Assured of their fate

   And their continual love.

~~~~~~~

Thy being's grace

Is pleasant to behold -

As beautiful as

The jacaranda

When its blooms

On some April day unfold.

Blessed be the one

Who keeps thy aura.

~~~~~~~

Love is many, Water is many

And flows aplenty

But Fire is one

And consumes until gone

All but purity.


If to each other we belong

And we're to stay strong

Then feel the fever

And douse with ether;

Purify the bond.

Happy eyes do not need the sun

   For they, like yours, have a light of their own –
