I Love You In 5 Languages

Listen to poem:
I love You in 5 Languages
David J Walker

How more than once 
A vestal dance 
A nights romance 
Gesticulates alone

Perchance we heard
The same music as we
Glanced through colored glasses
At the golden moon

Bowing in the ballroom
Vowing erotic promissory notes
Suspected but unconfessed 
In the street corner confessionals 

I love you said in 5 languages
While mocking  the intonations  of
foreign words and the
Meanings that one-night can hold

I will meet you in the
Abandoned public garden of
Lost calendars 
That only we can know
