Each morn I bid thee, Love you, bye
Atop of the stairwell,
Minds construct illusioned chateau
Wholly within I dwell.

Piscean gem of azure shine
Our binary stars twirl,
I close the door, you step onto
A bridge outside my world.

This is happiness to me now
It took some time to see,
There is nothing beyond these walls
That's waiting there for me.

The months now years spent searching for
A better way to be,
I measure life quite different now,
It dwells within you three.

The day passes, I listen for
Footsteps approaching near,
Returned to me at each day's end
The one's I hold most dear.

This is my entry for the 33rd Poetry Dice Challenge hosted by the lovely @rensoul17.

You can check out the contest here.

There are a few options to choose from for participation.

The dice picture roll for the week.

... and also some further prompts if you choose to use them. These are sentence and word prompts.

I used 2 of the sentence prompts.

“This is happiness to me”

And

“As I listened to the approaching footsteps."

The second prompt I applied a bit more loosely.

I know @rensoul17 and the dice founder @robyneggs would approve on any interpretation as long as it is in the pursuit of creative expression.

Or as ren encourages -

A divine a miraculous poem of might.
... I might need a little more practice to achieve this status, but it is something to strive for.
