James Fraser Poet Rhyme

The Day My Heart Floated Away

Years and tears
High and lows
Courting, smooching
Our loving grows
 
We meet after work
Go for drinks
Meet our friends
Our hearts in sync
 
Holidays we take
Our excitement grows
Parents to be
Our first one shows
 
Parents we are
Over the moon
Three more times
In your mother cocoon
 
Their now teenagers and older
Where we are the same
Two individual pictures
But not in the same frame
 
Our day to day ripples
Like stones thrown in a pond
Are the distant memories
When we used to respond
 
To look back on our yesterdays
As if it was today
For now it seems
The day my heart floated away

Brandee Augustus November 2, 2009 at 1:43 PM I like this! This is a very beautiful story in just a few words. It was very descriptive and a complete love story.

Linda-Marie Sweetheart October 22, 2009 at 2:35 PM This poem brought tears to my eyes... thankxxx for sharing it ... when I wrote Expressions of Love I was so crazy in love then... it represented one man... today it means the same for me.. I am now totally in love with another man... don't know if we will make it but we all must try to experience the romance your poem describes.. unfortunately ... true love always come with a price ... but we are so much better for this experience.

Carolyn Devonshire October 22, 2009 at 6:04 AM Sad and filled with heartfelt angst from love the "floats" away. Hang in there, Highlander, better days lay before you! This is beautifully written! Love you, Carolyn
