James Fraser Poet Couplet

Re-Found Visiting Qualicum Beach

We met a few years ago, then suddenly you were gone
We danced the very last dance to our favourite song

Happenings in our lives took control of our tomorrows
That evening when you walked away, filled my heart with sorrow
   ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~            
When I heard the telephone ring, I answered and you were there
And we spoke of the past few years, these years we could have shared

The time flew by when we talked, sharing our pasts to date
When you said you'd like to meet up again, my heart just couldn't wait
   ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~           
When I picked you up from the Airport, you hadn't changed at all
Six foot plus with sky blue eyes, still leaving me enthralled

We settled into our night for tomorrows journey we'll make
To a rented cottage so idyllically set, down by the lake
   ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          
The morning came so fast as we set of on our trip
Again going over the years, picturing like a movie clip

Our destination now reached, refreshed we head for a meal
At a restaurant overlooking the lake, our pasts begin to seal
   ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~
Back to the cottage we go, as you gently take my hand
So dreamy under the full moon, is this what fate had planned

You play our favourite song, the one we danced to so long ago
As you take me in your arms, something in me flows
   ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~
We look into each others eyes as you ruffle my long blond hair
I see desire looking back from your manly sky blue stare

Slowly we discard our clothes as you lay me on the bed
Adventurous discovering hands declare our minds well read
   ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~          ~
Our passion resonates, excitement fills the air
Years of catching up in delightful bodily share

We awaken in the morning, spooned within my reach
Our love has been reborn, re-found visiting Qualicum Beach

Anthony Nutter October 18, 2010 at 7:34 PM Never heard of Qualicum beach until reading this vivid descriptive poem. Puts alonging in my heart to visit. Who knows maybe the fire of love can be rekindled.

Francine Roberts October 18, 2010 at 4:47 PM oh and P.S. I'd be happy to pick you up at the airport anytime

Francine Roberts October 18, 2010 at 4:46 PM absolutely lovely James, Qualicum Beach is gorgeous of course ( on the ocean , not a lake, but you are allowed poetic license) I was actually in Qualicum on Wednesday, visiting an art gallery where the artists paint and sell their wares in the same building, awesome, but I digress, beautiful poem and thank you

Dr.Ram Mehta October 18, 2010 at 3:00 PM Nice passionate thoughts of yearning to create a blissful sanctuary, James

Diane Locksley October 18, 2010 at 1:44 PM Thanks for explaining, James. I returned your mail.

Diane Locksley October 18, 2010 at 1:18 PM Great love story, James. Where is Qualicum Beach? You're from Scotland, so I guess it is somewhere in the UK. Very romantic!
