Under Stars We Sing

Let us sing our love song in the dead of night,
As we dance barefoot in the secluded glade
Where echoes of childhood memories
Haunt us still.

Let us shed our souls of history's tight grasp,
Just as we shed a silent tear in exaltation
When our lips touch, then melt together,
Lost in loves embrace.

Let us lay our hearts bare under the gaze of the stars,
As we lay bare, entwined in harmonious bliss,
Awaiting judgment from the heavens
But asking only for acceptance.

    I thought the language used was beautiful. I enjoyed this poem. I think the last two lines sum it up beautifully.

    I like the sentiments expressed - some very pure emotion and sweet, enticing images... I like the innocence and sense of wonder and whimsy and longing conveyed in this piece... reminds me a bit of a nursery rhyme...

    The title is a bit mundane, but the piece is amazing. it really spoke to my senses. This was beautiful. I don't think you should change a word, but If I had written it, I would have formed the versus a bit differently. But The way I would have done it, would have been my style. And this is your poem, so it is certainly your style. Again, this is a brilliant piece. One of the better ones I have read here on AP. That is my honest opinion. Great job.

    Much Love

    P.S. After reading this piece a few times, I think that the title "Star Gazers" would have been really neat Not a request, just an idea. Good luck.
