Two Figures of Love Echo Beside a River
Two figures of love echo beside a river
dancing the dance of
ritual.
Advance.
Retreat.
Advance again.
Will and thought washing away
In the wake of so much
Need.
Want me.
Chase me.
Tell me I’m the one.
The river merely watching as it passes by,
carrying the tears
of ages
Two figures of love echo beside a river
dancing the dance of
ritual.
I had no art done for this so I used an image generously given to me by Dover Publishing.

laurie, i really think you did that line justice,, and the fact that you took it full circle and were able to repeat the last stanza really worked out great....

Jen - How do I reach you??? I left an email link on the front page. Would love to get the fantastic four together. (I think I'm into superheroes these days - I called yours the "terrific trio" in my blog post!) Email me!

Glad to see you did this prompt. You made a really love poem out of the spark of inspiration from that one line.
