To see your gaze light the firmament To see your smile lift the sun It’s your eyes I see as the moon rises My heart hopes this is love begun You gaze through the space, do you see me? I watch in hope forlorn But my heart I want to give to thee You are the reason I was born. My love I can only send On rolled parchment now to you My life on you depends For in truth you love me too You gaze through the window I see you every day You face lights up as I pass Please speak to me I pray Although I am of lowly birth I am rich in love for you Please grant me a next meeting And we could start anew. I will do it right this time And ask your father’s grace But we both know it now Together is our place. A sign, my love, from where you sit And gaze each day t’wards me I promise my life, my love, my name As I promise to make a wife of thee. MT © 30 /7 /2014

Would you believe it has taken Harry's death to make me re-read some of my poems, he used to re-read and comment all the time, I was bad at that and missed out on some wonderful comments, thank you, Eileen xx
