an ode to march third

I see them lying there
a single blanket to stay the cold night air,
neath moon bathed trees, peacefully sleeping
each, the other's arms safely keeping.
The pooka hole by their head,
Faeirie blessed earth for their bed
lost in lovers' dream
myself and my beloved Queen.

Now they stroll hand in hand
lost in some lovers' land.
The universe for them
goes no farther than her or him.
A time for work, a time for play
and this is a time to array
in love's luminescence,
each absorbed by the other's quintessence.

I see them here, I see them there
ever enthralled by all they share
work and play
each night and day
bonded body and soul,
dedicated to the other's goal.

Yes, beloved Dragon Dancer
visions of our times together seem to answer
when I let my thoughts wander
and at times appears that death has put asunder
all the hopes and all the dreams,
but yet little is as it seems.
True I miss the physical things we used to share,
yet I can always feel that you are still there.
When I open my mind and close my eyes
and feel your embrace, I realize
that you and I shall never be separate
even though our realms are now disparate.

On this second anniversary of your going
my love for thee is ever growing.
To live my life to it fullest, I pledge to thee my love,
by Mother Earth below, and by Sacred Moon above.
Good-night Dragon Dancer, my Queen
you are still, and will forever be my dream.
