As New Lovers Wake To Meet Dawn's Awaiting Treasures

As New Lovers Wake To Meet Dawn's Awaiting Treasures

Waking in Love's glory, he felt and said:

With heart swollen, bursting with love for her
 with her sweet, wonderful smile gazing back
With sun casting glow in her waking eyes 
 with soft, tender words uttered as she rose
With new adoration, his heart astir
 with teasing treasures seen at her bare pose
With gentle touch, of that first morning's kiss
 with solemn vow, he shouted- "I Love You".


Waking in Love's glory, she felt and said:

With immense bliss, praying they never part
 with eager want, beating in loving heart
With sight of his exiting hot shower
 with promise of his sexual power
With true glory in new day's welcomed start
 within realm of his ivory tower
With that gentle touch, that first honeyed kiss 
 with soft solemn vow, she cried- "I Love You".

 R.J. Lindley

Kurt Ravidas October 11, 2019 at 3:00 PM The Song of Songs, a new edition or rather a timeless edition. The love that knows no shame, no walls, no limits. Robert Lindley October 11, 2019 at 3:51 PM Thank you my friend. I just sent you a soup-mail about your new poem.. And it is a dazzling gem that truly awes me.

Quoth Theraven October 11, 2019 at 12:31 AM Robert, Your story told in Romanticism never missed the mark. Forty-six times around the sun only sweetened the pot. -Richard Robert Lindley October 11, 2019 at 12:45 PM Thank you my friend. So very kind of you to gift this inspiring comment. Tho' 46 years it feels to me like its been 96 years. Yet I keep paper handy, pen filled with ink and my muse on standby. That is, when she agrees to do so.....

Susan Ashley October 10, 2019 at 7:39 PM My dear friend, your poem is a tender and intimate portrayal of the shine and promise of new love. Beautiful emotional imagery conveys passionate romance and it’s cherished gifts so eloquently, Robert. A lustrous gem from your treasure trove of poetic artistry. Warmest wishes always my wonderful friend.. ~Susan Robert Lindley October 11, 2019 at 12:43 PM Thank you my friend. I have so many old, unseen by anybody poems(a few hundred), yet feel I lack the time to ever get them on here to be recorded past my time on this spinning blue marble.

Sunlite Wanter October 10, 2019 at 10:35 AM Amazing how consistent you are over so many years!! Robert Lindley October 11, 2019 at 12:41 PM Thank you my friend. Very glad you think so my friend. A poetic heart can keep its course if it started the true path and although stopped several times, it never wavered from reaching its sought destination.
