Jean Murray Poet Couplet

Silhouettes In Moonlight

While dreaming in the loft above
I am haunted by a long lost love.

The gilded leaves of Autumn sigh
just as they did when we said goodbye.

On a passing cloud there floats a dream,
it's heart shape showing what it means.

Silhouettes in moonlight you and I,
reunited at last, we both cry.

The soft song of a summer breeze
enwraps as true love sets us free.

Hold me close my darling dear,
you may disappear again I fear.

How I have longed for your embrace,
to be held again and encased

in strong arms and pounding heart.
Never again we two shall part.
