Release (A Tritina) Poem by Sheri Green

The day had closed upon my heart
And the darkness had slowly settled in
Casting shadows across love's fallow fire

So pale and dim was that smoldering fire
It lay idle and dormant within my heart
Until that day love whispered 'let him in'

And with one breath did love surge in
A mighty torrent that set my soul to fire
Releasing love's rapture within my heart

Your star now burns in that fire of my heart
