As The Palms Sway

Blowing you a cherry kiss
From 3000 miles away
Know you are adored and missed
As the palms sway

Feeling your masculinity 
In every winged word you say
Drowning in your denim divinity
As the palms sway

Leaving all indigo inhibitions
Like a child at peach play
Pure love amber ammunition 
As the palms sway

Let rainbows paint my soul
As yellow you brighten my day
And lighten my heart of gold
As the palms sway

While sand caresses your toes
And thoughts are in outer space
My hands in green grass that grows
As the palms sway

Like a red kite you fly me
In breeze at dock of the bay 
My love don’t deny me
As the palms sway

Say that you will be mine
Sweetheart don’t make me wait
To taste your love like white wine
As the palms sway

Sing me the Song of Solomon 
Recite red psalms and purple pray
Come to me sweet olive man
As the palms sway

We have yet to meet 
Yet we are of the same faith
Let us silver seek divine destiny 
As the palms sway

Sidebar: I worked for a season in the date-palm orchards in Kibbutz Sde Eliyahu in Israel four-plus decades ago. My youngest son has been working there now for a couple of years. Small world. Cheers, Gershon Login to Reply Karen Jones Date: 8/23/2024 3:32:00 PM Wow how interesting! And you must be so proud of your son! He is a good seed from a good tree! Thanks for inspiring this poem with a perfect title and fun energy!
