The Likes of You

Dear Sir I ask of you
to remember the likes of me
your solemn ways shook my core
but it was just us in our world.....

A simply courtyard of green
encircled with cream colored glass
toasted in a warm afternoon sun
and chilled in our indigo evenings....

We will lay side by side
togetherness to be widely wide spread
with capes and pine cone needles we lay
like a king and queen....

Together will were with, the likes of us
we were all alone then
we were so new
we loved so tenderly.....

We loved so bold and blue
our colors our sunsets
were ours for the taken
so wonderful with the likes of you...

Brooke I like the content very much and your choice of words are well thought out, but if I could say that as a free verse it would look better if it were not set out in quatrains, it is good, but let it just flow out....hope you don't mind me saying this....David
