I Wish

I wish to wake and meet your gaze when first the sun begins to rise and stay with you till sun's gold rays fade into dark of velvet skies. Oh, may your sweet eyes each day be the first and last thing that I see!

I love this one,, kinda like my Another Life which I wrote as I was watching True Blood as they were at a funeral. I love that Katy Perry Song and the actor that plays her boyfriend ;} Was also thinking of my X ,, 17 yrs is a long time to decided you don't want to be together. Thanks for liking my " Another Life" ;}

Hi Andrea, Thank you for your congrats and kind words. It was not an easy subject to put into a poem. Writing with discipline isn't the same as writing with the freedom of inspiration. You certainly have the gift of rhyme. God's blessings for the New Year! hugs :) Maureen
