Couples

The cool evening light
is flattering for lovers.
Makes shadows softer.

…

Free souls’ encounters,
face to face and eye to eye.
Meeting of spirits.

True close encounters,
face to face and eye to eye.
No need for makeup.

…

Our light, in our smiles.
Our beauty, in our kindness.
Said the sage elder.

…

To have and to hold, 
they promised each other once.
And meant it so, then.

…

‘Our secret,’ she said.
‘Art,’ said love, unveiling it.|
A private showing.

‘Today, now,’ said love.
‘Tomorrow, not yet,’ she said,
postponing herself.

…

She told love her truth.
With dissenting opinions,
love stayed anyway.

… 

They walk quietly,
holding hands, looking ahead,
having said it all.

…

Amazed, riveted,
marveled at the mystery.
Free from worry, fear.

Surprised, curious,
considered the idea.
It’s all possible.

…

They, indifferent
to everyone, everything.
They’ve fallen in love.

…

Feels good to see you,
to hear, smell, taste and touch you.
It’s good to love you.

…

Unsure, worried, scared,
tense, quivering, quavering.
They jump all at once.

They dove off the edge,
emerged on the other side,
shivering, smiling.

…

Young couple in love,
frolicking on the fresh grass.
Stopped when they saw us.

Keep going, don’t stop,
don’t curb your enthusiasm!
Your joy is our joy.
