LOVE’S  SUBLIMATION

A block of ice you were then  that Summer couldn’t melt

Where desires crazy  hovered to  hammer right and left;

Directionless ,daunting like a desert  wind

Trying desperately a  hidden flame to find;

Simmering  inside  somewhere deep within

They caused my shying  hands to break in;

Not knowing when and  which  way  to go,

I  had turned into  a hot humid flow,

When  you  recognized  Love’s  sizzling glow

Cast on drops of each  of my sweating  brow

And  soon, you were blocks of loving ice in flow.

It was a moment of recognition, my Love

When you gave a name to passion

And  life got a new direction

That was so urgent for Love’s desired sublimation !
