Flight To Honey Moon Poem by Celestine Ikwuamaesi

The moon floats, shines, fully bright;
offers a landing pad for a night flight.

When love crackles in the heart
like kindling in a winter hearth,
faces flame, the glow of seven suns;
eyes glisten the mystery of one plus one.

Honeycomb! Honey drips in the moon
like milk in happy hearts that soon
hold out the promise of love amid
life's grating checkered grid.

The sun may blaze, scorch, and smart;
love, like honey flows from the heart,
fresh milk from the udder of pampered
flock cuddling, peace unhampered

by threatening storm. Faith is sweet
as honey; firm as a rock in a fleet
of God's Word only. Hope bonds two
as one while they chime: I do,

on a flight to honey moon,
winged by wind of love.
