Locked in Embrace

                                                                                   Artist: Anders Zorn (1882)
Image: Embrace, a water-color masterpiece  (here)

Shiny slow ripples
Everlasting in movements
So also my heart

Extending love’s touch
When safely in my arms warmth
Of untold pleasure

Sharp tingling vibrates
Binding souls lost in heaven’s
Embrace stoutly firm

    Yup, a bit of "heaven on earth".
    I was fortunate to finally find EARTH on earth.
    (Seems like "HEAVEN" though--grin!
    Thanks!
