Writer's Island #24 - Spellbound

I've missed a few weeks' fo Writer's Island prompts, due to some crazy busy stuff going on, but I'm back. This week's prompt is "Spellbound"



Do You?


My world changes

in a blink of an eye

your eyes

looking into mine
reaching in for permanence


No longer uncertain

Speaking volumes with one look

This is a sure thing


Unable to look away

Spellbound

A feeling of comfort enfolds me


No where else I'd rather be

No one else

Could so fully complete me


Blinking again

I sigh

Part my lips

In expectation


And say the words
that bind our love

"I do".

There is also a secondary prompt going on over at Writer's Island now, called Matinee Muse, and this week's prompt is Awakening.


Rebirth


Drops of water

shimmy on down

morning dew

not a sound

but it's beginning


Early sunrise
later sunset

almost ready

but not quite yet

to the ending


Hear a chirp here

a sweet song there

flying in

on a a wing and a prayer

they're all settling in


A bit of green

beneath the snow

and sight unseen

the seedlings grow

ah Spring, let it begin

Good to be back.

I like the first one. Didn't expect it to end with "I do" but how nicely it read.

Delightful lines, especially "reaching in for permanence" which is so memorable for me as a reader. Thank you. Cheers. ;)
