To Hear Your Voice Across the Skies

For Carol, my love

As the plane ascends through silver air,
My heart stays grounded — with you there.
Each cloud I pass, each dawn I chase,
Still holds the warmth of your embrace.

Frankfurt awaits with lights so bright,
But none can match your eyes’ soft light.
I’ll speak your name in every hall,
Promote your words, give love my all.

For every page your soul has penned,
I’ll guard it true, my love to send.
Your book — our bond — a tender art,
Each word a whisper from your heart.

And when the crowd applauds your name,
I’ll feel your voice — it sounds the same.
Though oceans stretch between our skies,
I’ll hear your love through whispered sighs.

So wait for me, my sweetest muse,
No distance dims the love I choose.
For in each word, in every noise,
I fly to hear your voice.

A reader sends love!
