Beautiful Mysteries

Divinity lives beyond description Alone, a weary heart cries from its pain Desire eager for its conscription Might truth and love turn this way again? Sweet mysteries, this life, in dreams of thee Yield fantasy's passion I dare to share Walk from this muse, I pray to live in me Conceding this, my love, unto your care On lifeless shadows, cast your glowing light Bring a blessed presence to this peace I seek Rest too this solemn shade, this endless night With angelic verse, but you could only speak For seeking dreams to dream from up above I cast my will and fate to seek your love

"beyond description"! our words sometimes betray us to render the deep and the undefined beauty dwelling inside the heart.. Yet your brilliant Sonnet and your masterful penning didn't fail you to translate the language of the Love you are seeking! Great work Charlie! A pleasure to read. A FAV. My best regards. Be blessed always.
