Love Poem Poem by Peter Daniel Phiri

Behold, the ground shaking,
The same pound hammers pounding.
Somewhat louder, wilder, ...carefree!
Wandering out in the dark.
Shining.
Naked and pure, with no shame.
A love mirrored on her lips,
Smiling....
A wild heart turned tame

Lofty, .. ever present.
A sweet caress..
To small, innocent footprints
engraving on that mighty shore..
Of her heart
A sea of life!

A toddler of yesteryear
Once scared of bees,
Same age as mine..
Never uttered 'please'
Like me, haunted with pride
A peacock!
With beauty and pride.

My Valentine,
Since the age of nine..
A song jelled together to a fine tune with the spirit..
A wife,
Taking charge of life,
Arranging it carefully,
The same way her husband to be writes..
The same way God decorated the skies!
