Eternal Love Takes You Home
Eternal Love Takes You Home …
When love has blessed your heart, hold it dear,
E’en though the one loved feels not the same,
For love has a divine reason,
Mayhap a season to learn and spiritually grow,
Listen to the voice of love and believe,
It bespeaks of truths within divinity’s purpose,
Winds of change will put all in eternity’s right time.
Love is the highest of joy, the deepest of pain,
The gift of pure bliss, or unbearable sadness,
From the height of ecstasy when two souls
Quiver together in passion’s embrace,
Or shake in sorrow if the beloved turns away,
And you feel torn apart, aching with loneliness.
Love enfolds you, strips you bare,
Knows every part of you, connects with your soul,
Sets you free from all inhibitions,
Makes you whole when together,
Raises you up to that sacred state of being
One in spirit – mind, body, heart and soul,
For the moment of bliss, for all time.
Love is the core of life, your center,
It is all the secrets deep within, of your heart,
Makes you part of the divine plan of all life,
Eternal love takes you home.

I have always liked to write.It is important to me that writing comes from my heart and soul. When writing poetry, if I do not feel a spiritual connection to what I am writing on, I will discard it and go on to something I can connect with on a spiritual level. I live in the moment, I write from the past or beyond the veil. When writing fiction I go with whatever inspires me at the moment - it could be funny, sorrowful, romantic or sometimes done with the use of colloquial language from mountain folk or other cultural regions.
I began writing content online in 2007, starting with BellaOnline - A Voice For Women, where I was the Native American Editor, Folklore & Mythology Editor, and the Appalachian Editor. I also wrote articles forThe Examiner, Daily Two Cents, and Yahoo. I am currently an author on HubPages.
Most of what I write takes a lot of research and I love it. Even if it is a fictional story, I will research for accuracy in whatever it takes to make my characters, their era, their location, etc. become realistic to the reader.
I hope you enjoy my works. Thank you for visiting.
