Calliope looks down on me
And brings thoughts to my mind
Inspiring me to write,
To write words of love,
Love for all around me
As each day I grow older
And am privileged to be here
To see the wonder of life
For a very long time.
My love for many things
She brings to me.
The beauty of Music
Fills my body with wonder,
The artwork of Nature
Files my eyes with wonder,
As does artwork from people
With such superb skill
To put their eye and mind’s eye
Onto that plain canvas.
The love of friends is with me,
Both those around me
And those I never see.
But then Calliope raises her eyes
As she thinks that I have forgotten,
Forgotten the love of my life.
But no My Lover is there,
Forever with me in my heart and soul
As we travel this world together,
Remaining forever in each other’s arms,
Forever in each other’s hearts,
Forever in each other's minds,
Moving towards eternity,
As one being
Never to be parted.

Good write Gold. When did we first meet her in person?! lol.
Thanks Orchi,
We saw her that day when we climber Mount Olympus to see her father Zeus and she was in his arms having just been born.
