Poem Title:
Poem
Driving along a coastal road The top drawn down On a magical seaside day She, thumbing through a magazine Reaching for the stereo dial "Stop," I say, she smiles The wind, dancing about her hair Waltzing, she seems so, astonishingly beautiful today ~ Her reddened lips, her darkened eyelashes Her blushed cheeks, and, her perfect nose I try to sing along, with Peter Gabriels song "In your eyes, the light the heat...." I smile, as I gently caress her brow She, lovingly leans into my hand, and my heart is warm I look back ahead, and then toward the west Thinking about....thinking about....thinking.... Her precious voice ~ "Can we dear," she says, "can we" I smile again, as she softly kisses my ear My eyes glance toward the mirror A tiny heart, that still lives there today Next to a cross, that she once did wear Lost in thought again.... So magnificent, this moment it seems As I glide my fingers, through her soft and waving hair Slowly, across her shoulder, and down, her silkened arm Until, our hands become intwined, as one ~ One, within her endless 'Splendor!' "In your eyes, the light the heat...." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I lift my head, from upon my pillow I look at the clock, I look at the day My eyes drop, lost in dreams again.... I glance beyond the door, and across the walls Until, her picture sitting there ~ Never very far, never far from my eyes I sit up, I touch it, I hold it.... She, wearing her favorite whitened sundress Her smile, as a beckoning light~ Her golden skin, smooth and glistening, radiant ~ Walking upon the waters edge Gliding, atop the sands, at sunset The oceans tides, gently about our feet "Can we dear," she laughs, "can we" As I lift her up, as I lift her high, twirling, into the air.... "Forever my love" ~ "The light, the heat, I am complete...." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I step outside, onto the balcony A cup of coffee, within my hands A tad bit nippy, I think, today As I look, upon the waves.... (Continued).
