Twilight

...........................................................
"O! for a muse of fire, that would
ascend the brightest heaven of invention."
-William Shakespeare
..........................................................

She breathes in the twilight,
She's fire and soul,
Like a thundering river
All shaded in snow.

She is fair Aphrodite,
She teases the air.
She's a whisper, an angel,
A spirit, a prayer.

She is breath to my spirit,
My ambrosia her kiss.
She is more than my Muse
In a moment like this.

As though interlaced
And entwined,
Our souls live as one.
I am her starlight,
And she is my sun.

Wowers! This is breathtakingly beautiful! I am nearly floored! Wonderful. This is a tribute merely to your inspiring "Muse"?? She's a lucky chic for all that, and after that, you're the lucky chuck. Awesome with captivating, romantic imagery. I love it.
