Through the hazy mist I glimpse your face
The outline of which I clearly trace
Within my mind forevermore
To remain ageless as all time
The billowing fog cannot obscure
Such a vision,so pristine and pure
For what seems eternity,I bask within
Your beauty in its prime
Slowly,I move toward your image
Which shimmers as silver upon a moonbeam
I allow a moment to drink in the essence
Of your rhapsody in rhyme
Then the fire within begins to flicker
The smoke unto the air grows thicker
Still,I'm able to capture your likeness
But I'm voiceless as the mime
I cannot express innermost desires
As all that is me yields to the fires
Which are brisk and leave nary a speck
Only echoes of a chime
