Again, Her In These Waiting Arms

Again, Her In These Waiting Arms


That night, came a flight to the moon
Grand and certainly not too soon
The winds softly blowing from Mars
Majestic rays from twinkling stars
All around love was on parade
Left behind revolving charades
The shackles of a world gone mad
Landing on a new starship pad
Love had flowered month of June
Heavenly night sang right in tune.

Night, brought a beautiful reprieve
A lonely Adam found his Eve
Amidst star-beams, glittering sky
Such treasure no man could deny
She a true angel, sent to save
All in life, I would ever crave
Such blessing, a memory grand
Good-bye, I said- to earthen land.

What more could universe me give
Than to forever with her live
Enjoy the loving of her smile
The sweet of her colorful style
Yet Time its old clock had started
Its path, sorrow came- we parted
Now I tear up seeing night sky
Remember saddest of good-byes.

Yet now hope cites a future date
And love has demanded of Fate
To dare to universe' arm twist
Bring her back in a nightdream mist
Again, her in these waiting arms
Love's beauty, her smoldering charms
Joyful tears I  cry on such nights
For Love gifts, most precious delights
That night, came a flight to the moon
Grand and certainly not too soon.

Romanticism,
( Dedicated to my angel watching from Heaven above )

Note- A joy to cherish her life, our love and that we shall 
one future day meet again. A blessing to wake this dawn, 
see her smile and thus so poetically feel and then write.

My dear friend, such tender imagery, artistry and ardent emotion fills your heartfelt poem. To dream such dreams is indeed a blessing, Robert, and a beautiful reprieve for “a lonely Adam who found his Eve”. Your loving heart bares its grief with precious bittersweet beauty. Your Angel is always with you and her inspiration is exquisite. Despite the heartache, I hope you and your son are doing well. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Thank you, my friend. Although writing helps, appears that I now have quite a long road ahead to get back into things in a normal way, if ever I do make it that far back. God bless...
