To let love shine through

We have but one

To call our own

No others allow

Our Earthly form

A heavenly body

Of living things

Floating

Around a brilliant star

We circle

As each days passes

For twenty four hours

We move

An endless orbit

Night into day

And day returns

Once again

Until our final hours

Our planet remains

A place we call home

Her power of love weakened the mighty

The Goddess, a beauty was she, Aphrodite

Clothed in silken white, she gleamed

The vision of every human male’s dream

They bowed to her, these men, devoted

Hoping they would soon be noticed

And stand by her side, as her lover, no more

Immortality, is all they ever wished for

Finite ~ #poetry #TheDailyPost

Should it come to an end, never to remain

My world, restricted, again and again

A finite place, I have come to loathe

Trapped by limits, naked, unclothed

Living inside of me, a place to call home

Colorful nights, in vibrant monotone

Watching the shadows, creep in with a smile

Knowing they won’t last more than awhile

Yet, I still have this time, should I complain?

As I listen to the infinite, whisper in vain
