Only In His Arms Shall I

When closed are mine eyes
I can see only those butterflies
Surrounding me and my prince
Ouch, a wake up back does wince!

A great man, all white in beard
All acclaimed and well feared
He speaks with the sound of thunder
And glares at the sight of blunder

Should you ever wonder
Who is mine own wonder
Why? He is in my heart
Kept as a secret sweetheart

That one great man, so well known
For him, I shall go to those ways still unknown
Someone I cannot name
For so great is his fame

Such a man do I admire
As my own identical peer
Such a man I shall dance with
Even if to have a dance shall have me in grieve

A tango, a waltz or even a slow
Whichever style the melody will flow
In him I shall lose my stricture
And bear with his own pleasure!

Hi Anna (May I call you that?) Thanks for the lovely comment! To find soup mail, go to the poet's picture, beside that on the right it will say 'Written by'_ _ _directly beside THAT you will see an envelope with a steaming cup of coffee...That's soup mail...Next to that, (only if the poet is a premium member) you will see a square box which is the poet's latest blog (If the poet has posted one) You can find all the blogs on the home page where you can leave comments on the ones that interest you...Thanks again for the comment - Tim
