Excerpt From Eternal Verse By John Lars Zwerenz (A New Book Of American Poetry To Be Published In 2013)

OF TWO IN PARADISE

When the silver fountains sigh
To the paradisial sky
Eloquently, majestically,
I shall gaze into your ebony eyes
As the snow descends upon your jet-black hair
And your face, so astonishing,
Astonishingly fair.

The castle by the sea
Where the diamond currents rise
With the grace of an angel's wing
Is a witness to our ardor there.

And as the pines, wrapped in a breeze
Of blue and velvet rhapsodies
Shake their perfumes upon your dress
I shall find ecstasy in your feminine caress
And our kiss shall recite The Angelus.
