Analysis of As hearts Descend
For he admires the wind,
he longs for her scent.
Knowing what is meant...
Descending...Descending...
Earth meets knee, fathomless eyes, a majestic interlude.
For who is this woman,
who considereth this man,
when it all began....
that is he who admires the wind
Its beginning, its end, only God knows.
Ahh, Feel, Blow oh Wind as their journey begins.
Her thoughts flow into him
Blue eyes sparkle in feminine delight...as they sail.
Volumes, spectrums, depths unseen-unknown,
only to 'they' who admire the wind.
Unfurling the sails within him, He will ever embrace
the never-ceasing aroma of her essence.......
