Her Love
By Michael Copeland

Captured by the winds of the West,
her smile carried to the four corners
of the earth.

Her warming touch melted men
where they stood, unable to flee
the onslaught of love.

A siren call echoed the seas like
never more, beseeching all to
pray for her loving soul.

This lady of passion and boundless
love etched in Cupid’s heart
not to be forgotten in a lifetime.
