What separates well-lived from life mundane?
Rhythm of swift horse on windswept plain,
Storied days hooked on cowboy way of life,
Where brotherly ties make trail rides worthwhile.
Moonlight strolls on sandy ocean shores
By desirous lovers longing to embrace,
Awash in feelings akin breaking waves,
Yet exquisite like butterflies in meadows.
Light captured in a single pearl of dew
With velvet gloves of quietude at dawn,
Then spilled in strokes across white linen realm
As words that caress human heart and soul.
Find passion within simple things in life,
Where passion thrives as desire set afire.
Ilija Lukić 2020
