Love Poem: Two Hearts

Two Hearts

They say that love is like the sun
Lighting up the moon
Two hearts eclipse and beat as one
On an evening late in June

In azure skies where stars are strung
Like jasmine vines in bloom
A gentle breeze, like love, has come
To hum a little tune

On beaches where the waves are flung
At high tide and high noon
A sea of blissful tears will run
Among love’s sandy dunes

In a little house where hope is hung
Like a wreath in every room
Love’s made a home, life’s just begun
For a lucky bride and groom

And he will be her shining sun
And she, his gleaming moon
Two hearts eclipse and beat as one
On an evening late in June.


For my brother, Blake Burgess
and his wife Krystal
on their wedding day
