Together...

Together they saw

earth rise to the call

of love.

Dark forest

was where he found

her resting gently

upon the ground.

Seemingly

so fast asleep

but saw her breath

was much too weak.

Gingerly

he knelt his frame

touching her heart

and wake she came.

Sitting straight

up with her lips

to each his eyes

she gave a kiss.

That moment

they watched dark fall

from the forest:

light claimed it all.
