Ebenezer Baiden-Amissah Poet Free verse

Ecstatic Words

I long to see you, to infuse you with joy
Speak bubbling words to soothe 
Your aching heart
Hold you tightly in my loving arms
Place lasting kisses on your very soft,
Revered lips
As an honest man does to a newly-found 
young woman
Of whom his heart craves so much after

For you’re exceptional today,
Spectacular among the women of your clime
You’re a wealthy Queen indeed
You’re vivid in speech
And would love to teach
All young ones, and all people within your reach
The precious traditions and values
Of all great times and seasons
Sweeter than cream and many a peach

I long to re-echo as a voice that brings cheer
To your sorrowing heart
For a day like this,
The sad news filtered down to you
Of the sudden departure 
Of an excellent gem you so much treasured	
In your life

I long to exchange pleasant hugs with you,
As many gallant folks since the days of yore,
Often keep a trustful guard on their tongue
Who with uncommon and rare actions
Portray their innermost feelings 
As they anxiously stay awake 
Through the dead of the nights
And wait with great expectancy 
And with patience
For a promising morning.
