Q Imagine

HORIZON: A VILLANELLE

There is love on the horizon too
where the wind sways and wonder flies
I travel through the pink, purple and blue

And cascade over a hope that’s true
It parades on the bright sunrise
There is love on the horizon too

And vigor and life where the wind blew
It goes, not by surprise
I travel through the pink, purple and blue

To find a moment where I see you
A sight for bitter eyes
There is love on the horizon too

That’s swift and beautiful as morning dew
that stays in hearts that are wise
I travel through the pink, purple and blue

To find a light that’s shining through
My pain, my life, my cries
There is a love on the horizon too
I travel through the pink, purple and blue.
