“She walks in beauty, like the night”

Lord Byron

 

~~~

 

If my beauty is compared

to night...with loving eyes

then let the dawn’s light be spared

I’ll wrap you in my skies

of amethyst and moonlit glow

and stars so tenderly

that my heart shall overflow

if you will walk with me…

I would say the last line makes this so touching and romantic... Life, lovers, anything can be beautiful but if it isn't cherished, adored, and shared then what is the point?

To share all that is you, tenderly, wrapping your essence around that of your lover defines what it is to truly love.. The giving of oneself entirely to another.... you have elegantly expressed this in your romantic way.....


nicely done as always girl.

O yes indeed, by day all is there to behold but by nightfall, the darkness adds to the mystic and enhancement. A truly captivating, romantic piece of poetry Julie!
