Since She Is Here With Me
Since she is here with me
Here upon uncharted land
I wander as I please
Silence comes the morning sun
now streaming through the trees
Destinations carry me
along a sorted way
Down the path to anywhere
on any given day
Corners I may come around
are sharp in their design
Slowly I do make my way
to see what I can find
Loneliness I’ve come to know
as yet my only friend
Days and nights do travel so
to greet me once again
There beyond a clearing dense
the brush so thorned and thick
Making haste I follow through,
my legs they move so quick
For here, but any sight I see
to dance before my eyes
Thoughts that seem to comfort me
when then I realize
Sunning long the water’s shore
if but a fantasy
A beauty drinks of nature’s fair
as if she waits for me
Now my shadow blends the scene
she turns to show her face
Like a painted masterpiece
my mind can not erase
Glowing like an evening star
so radiant and true
Hair of brown and velvet sheen
I’m lost inside her view
Then her smile captures me,
it holds on ever tight
So as I can hardly breathe
my head it feels so light
“Come and sit here by my side”
her words a happy song
Sitting down I can’t believe,
somehow this must be wrong
Oh to feel my beating heart
in moments such as this
Like an angel sent to me
if but to know her kiss
As the sun is setting
and a crescent moon does rise
Watching the reflection glow
within her island eyes
Now my days are endless
as I now know what that means
For I will spend forever
with this woman of my dreams
And we shall go a wandering
where ever we may find
Down a beach of shifting sand,
a mountain top to climb
Across a field of daffodils,
beneath a falling star
No where else shall be too close
nor shall it be too far
For all along I thought this place
was heaven don’t you see
Now I know it is the truth
since she is here with me
Good night Soupers
