Momentary and ageless-

Gently place me

where nude sky and
lovelorn earth mingle
your womb of rain
Wait for me to wake up
then we reign
we gain
All space
all time is

I now find no merit whatever in the form. Are you trying to write verse on a strip of linguine? You have something quite wonderfully fulfilling to write about, something expansive, full and ripe for the telling......why limit your phrasing to thin, mean lines. I doubt that your thoughts are as restricted. Let them burgeon and spread. Suggestion:

till nibbana nibbana is not normally considered to be a time dependent state which is approached in serial time. More it is an impossible to define state of bliss which is "achieved", and can be achieved, repeatedly. Incautious use of esoteric terms will always give rise to calls of foul but cultural discretion permits for sagacity amongst the enlightened devotees.......not sure that this reader is up to the understanding required......and I may be in a majority.
my fecund valley you are hoping that fertile and fecund are fungible.....I think notlet me be your
ocher shrub
and seep in not clear. Do you mean seep in as in osmosis or seep in as in immerse. I really doesn't matter unless you are a pedant but what do you want it to mean?

Love needs a sky! Naked and endless;
This love transcends the void above and flies
beyond transparency. Ethereal and all pervasive,
even through permanence of time.
This love binds us in blessed synchrony;
a momentary and concomitant state of bliss!
Etc. Etc. So as you have shown yourself to be a reasonable man I hope you will not think me dictatorial......as I said, suggestion only. Put some body into it

Best,
Tectak
This piece us worth the effort.
