Bronte Return - Part 5

This is our 5th Bronte poem please read the other poems if you are not familiar with our story Outside of Howarth The world is bleak and grey Nothing to stir the memory Or to offer solace from the fray . Yet as soon as I return To the old Bronte home My strength returns quickly I'm no longer alone . In the arms of my true love Watching flames flicker in the grate Painful past is no more Love filled future my fate. Our children are our future You are the one that I adore Patrick and Grace missed their daddy But now from battle you return I know that you are weary Your strength will soon return Dark days are now behind us To the future we must look Our journey in life has not be smooth Still we have sheltered from each storm With arms wrapped round each other Forever love will keep us warm Wrapped up in each other Watching our children play Doting father and mother Loving the Bronte way Our home is filled with laughter Playing hide and seek with the kids You give me the kiss I've been after Just before the kids discover where we're hid. I'm home Mrs Bronte This time I'm here to stay I couldn't cope with my aching heart Each time I went away Each night I kissed your picture Wiped the tears from my cheek Holding you to my heart At times, unable to speak Now you have returned The past has been locked away Soon we will have more children For I have a baby on the way We have been making up for lost time Now once again you are mine Darling, you were forever in my heart Now reunited, never shall we part 24th August 2015 Jan Allison & Darren Watson

The Bronte series of poems are very special to us both Eve - especially after the journey we have both been on over recent months - this really marks the return of Jadazzle I spent several hours at the Bronte museum when we visited Yorkshire last year - I had been there before many years ago and was so lovely to go back with fresh eyes now I try a few scribbles of my own:-) hugs Jan xx

Darren makes a wonderful cyber hubby Eileen lol:-)I am hoping it won't be too long before he is back on soup but I will hold the fort for as long as it takes - getting him back to good health is the most important thing to me:-) hugs Jan xx

ahhh, the romance returns!! I kind of remember these. I may need to review a few of them again! This is very sweet, Jan, and I can sense the symbolism in it, for the return of good things in your life, mainly friendship! GOOD Poem, Darren, if you are reading this!! (can't wait to see you posting again under your own name as well).

We had such fun writing the other Bronte poems so this was natural to write another one to rekindle our Jadazzle reunion - the bond we have is stronger than ever:-) I am sure Daz will be back on his own page, but for now I am posting comments :-) hugs Jan xx
