Of Love And Happiness

Ricardo Saúl LaRosa

Below these earthly skies of blue,

There dwells a poet in love with you,
A man who had only known pains,
A man whose life now just love reigns,

Below the magical moonlight of white,

There dwells a heart a glowing in delight,
Endless dreams of love now flowering,
His spirit dancing and empowering,

Below the firmaments of heaven’s space,

There dwells a soul entwined in love’s embrace,
And in these words are attempts to express,
How her warm sweet lips with mine do caress,

Below the twinkling nighttime stars,

There is a raging spirit traveling past Mars,
Zooming at the speed of light and so in love,
Around the solar system flying below and above,

Below the Throne of the Great Divine,

I hide her heart, my happiness, that is mine,
I sanctify the day she came into my lonely world,
Her first kissed made my whole being twirled,

Beneath my eyes are falling tears of joy,

Caused by my dearest beloved, my Helen of Troy,
Whose love for me has launched a thousand songs,
And our love in these poetic verses now belongs…
