His Soul's Inner Stable

There is a little farm down south that always stays on my mind and on it lives the man of my dreams that I can not seem to live without. In my mind, I can see the mountains and they are such a lovely view and I can see his eyes light up so warm in the evening's sunset hues. I can see the roaring camp fire where he sits and I can smell the hot coffee right off of the fire pit. I longingly watch him on the tractor so gracefully and peacefully labor and I desire to be with him, and feel his soul's inner stable. The crate myrtles are in blooming wonder and what it would be like to be in his arms, I often ponder. My need to hold him runs so deep even though he's only a friend I find that my mind and soul keeps searching for him again and again.

Sharon, A very powerful, sensitive, and quite touching write here. I thoroughly enjoyed your message here and the descriptive touches of your metaphors throughout the verses. My conclusion: Simple, Direct, Powerful, and Touching!! I like the image too invoked when I read the title of your work here. And a "7" from me too for a job well-done. This person sounds like someone quite special to you. Good Luck!! Cheers and Best Wishes, Gary

Thank you so very much Richard for your sweet comment. Yes I did tell him and he did not feel the same way. This was many years ago now, but I still love him and always will. I would rather have him as a friend, than to lose him to something or someone, someday. It is always nice to hear from you Richard and I hope you have a wonderful day....Sharon G.
