Allow the Dawn To Wake Us - a Collaboration With Robert Lindley

I would write words for you, dipped in beauty and gold my heart would burst for you, if it were just that bold; with you, our romance cries out, for an eight day week with you, I have found the truest of deep love I seek. Walk with me, to paradise its bright singing birds Talk to me, your voice sends golden, beautiful words; stay this night, let our two souls and pure hearts entwine allow dawn to wake us, let our loving hours shine. Love does flow with heat for you from my melted heart honey dipped allure your ambrosia does impart, time together precious as racing pulse does chime in amaranthine night of purple passion prime. Basking in our luscious love lush and heaven-sent rousing first blush bathes us embraced in our content; sunrise spreads ardent reds blessing our love story dawning dew thrills the bloom of our morning glory. Robert J. Lindley and Susan Ashley (a collaboration) July 17,2018 Poet’s note: My dear friend Robert, thank you for your gracious invitation to collaborate with you on this luminous piece of poetry. It is my honor to unite our poetic voices once again and a joy to be inspired by your golden verses of rich romance and ardent love. Our collaborations, and your wonderful talent and kindhearted friendship are treasured and I cherish our shared passion for creating poetry.. I truly enjoyed this exquisite poetic and artistic experience with you my dear friend.
