Into the Sunset

I captured the twilight, marmalade skies Longing to see it reflect in your eyes Stood on a mountain where shadows did play Boarded a cloud sent to take me away Flew o'er the valley, a shimmering glide Under a rainbow with nothing to hide Drifted the border, a northern delight Just past the moon shining brightly tonight Landed my cloud midst a maple tree row Feeling the breeze, ever cooling the flow Looked in my heart as I quickly climbed down Seeking the girl with the eyes colored brown Called out your name, set the echoes a' free Gazed the horizon only hoping to see When there you were, with a smile on your face Running to greet me, a wondrous embrace You climbed on our cloud, and we followed the wind A perfect adventure, about to begin We floated forever on the heavens above Into the sunset, just falling in love

AWESOME, so awesome that I read it to My Tim. What a keeper - if anyone should publish, it is you (maybe just allow me a few entries? - Naw, I pale compared to your engaging flow), man - I love reading you. This is a gem. Somewhere there is a woman to thank for all the poems she 'birthed' in you. Wish I had time to read more, always want more Chris' poems. CayCay
