I built my love out of stardust
And hope for tomorrow
Out of summer wind
And open skies
In the dead of winter
For you I’ve waited
In the sweetness of spring
I’ve longed for you
You are the champion of my heart
And the sunlight in my soul
May I fall asleep to your music
And wake to your sonnets of joy
You are my elysian fields
May I dwell with you forever
Oh, that I will thrive in your gardens
And feast upon the fruit of your love
Oh, lover of my soul
I’ll think of you, or speak of you
Wherever I roam
And when so ever I dance

I think when you are deeply rooted in the purest form of love, the whole world will be connected to them. Everything will remind you of them.
I do have another poem called "Stardust" that has the same begining line....that line inspired me to write this poem. Weird, huh?

A very fine write. You have expressed yourself quite well. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Again, well done. For any of your readers who may not know the source of your title, I thought I'ld add a footnote (link):

I also, have used this reference in another write, called: "Whimsical Soccor Game", if you haven't read perhaps you might like to. Here's a link to it:

The was BEAUTIFUL! So simple yet it speaks volumes! I love it. My favorite line being "You are my elysian fields
May I dwell with you forever". Oh my goodness, but that is powerful and eloquent!

This is a beautiful, beautiful write. It's not the typical, sappy, rhyming kind of love poem. Instead it's unique and much more elegantly written. This is the kind of love poetry I like to read, and I thank you for sharing it.

Very nice
Good imagery and a nice flow to this piece. I agree with your comments in AN. My whole world and I have been together for almost twenty-six years.
