Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Say You Will

say you will
     always slow dance
          with me
               beneath the moon
                    as we watch the stars;
                         perchance we'll
                              spot one...

shoot across
     the sky!
          say you will
               open wide
                    the door to your heart
                         so I'd walk right in and
                              live...

now and forever!

           (Yalto)
