David O'Haolin Whalen Poet Romanticism

Boldly Seize the Night

We should never, ever
Suffer from timidity…
Erenow let us be
Both brash and bold…
For we’ll ne’er be
This young again (you see)
Nor will we e’er be so old

Let us take delight
In delayed goodnights
In long embraces
Hold so tight 
Take leisure in
The pleasure of
Long languid looks 
From limpid eyes

We should never be 
Afraid To proffer thanks
Boldly offer profuse delight
Always tender soft sighs 
And friendly goodnights
And never…ever say
…Goodbyes…
