Timeless (Fibonacci)

by Sylvia   May 4, 2009


Is
love
timeless?
Does it span
the passing decades?
Is it unaffected by space?
Everlasting, eternal, ageless, older than time.
True love surpassed the ages, more certain than death itself, souls drawn closer with each rebirth.

Through the centuries our spirits met, we shared pleasures beyond earthly recognition.
Awareness encompassed hearts that knew the joy of loving
in each life, never forgetting.
Reliving moments,
ecstasy
of love
we
found.

    Sylvia,

    another style that you have made look so easy. :)

    A great question, an opening pause for thought. Questions work so well with this strict syllable structured poems.

    Does it span
    passing of decades?
    ^
    I think the flow is a bit shaky here? Maybe use: Does it span the passing decades?

    Is it unaffected by space?

    You really have given the reader much to think about.

    Everlasting, eternal, ageless, older than time.
    True love surpassed the ages, more certain than death itself, souls drawn closer with each rebirth.

    ..and here, it is like you have given your thoughts on the above questions. I like this explanation of love. It really reminds the reader just how 'timeless' love is. I love the 'more certain than death' part, this really hits the message home.

    Through the centuries our spirits met, we shared pleasures beyond earthly recognition.

    Here we see a personal experience. A true love experience and so a true knowledge of its impact.

    Awareness encompassed hearts that knew the joy of loving
    in each life, never forgetting.
    Reliving moments,
    ecstasy
    of love
    we
    found.

    Only by experiencing an emotion in its fullest state can we really appreciate the true power of love and its eternal force shaping and filling the universe that we live.

    Well done Sylvia on a wonderfully, thought provoking piece.

    Dear Sylvia

    this is such a warm and love filled verse that reads so unrestrained within the conformance.

    it's easy to see from a verse like this, the warm heart that makes it write so.

    good luck and hope

    Great job my friend.An enjoyable read.
