Our Earthly Appetites

In our earthly appetites our love is now one To hear your heartbeat next to mine always Oh yes—a sweet beautiful rose of paradise You came to me by the river my bonnie lass While branches of birds whistled tunes of love Drifting on a summer breeze warmly whispering Moaning as gentle thoughts murmur your name Carried on a majestic breath of warm luscious air With echoing babbles from a most precious maiden Memories with one dream holding a forget-me-not Unveiling so fair your impression left on my heart Dancing on every pulse beat sweetly sings a siren I watch the sun as it fades into the deep blue sea We both sail upon one warm beauty breeze of sighs While behind these eyes the truth forever is dawning One flower nods in a rainbow array far beyond compare While you who drink from love’s very chalice so true A magical and enchanting blessing holding no disguise You’re the breath of my life and existence my love Gary Bateman and Liam McDaid – A Collaborated Poem, Copyright © All Rights Reserved (July 21, 2015) (Free Verse)

Romantic imagery that breathes life into this love poem. You two, Gary & Liam, have become really good at writing together; only at the end did I realize that this was a collab!! Top marks to you! // paul
