Notes About The Poem

To Be With You - Collaboration With Darren White:

I would trade it all in for your gentle smile, The touch of your hand, let's walk for a while, Let our passions burn in a loving embrace, Allowing love to roam, both follow in chase. With eyes closed, I hear you I feel you so near, Your voice, your sweet eyes, make my day and night clear, Hold me so tight to you, embrace, don't let go, Until we're one person, for I love you so. I would trade my fortune, my house, all for you, I would sell my car, my whole land, my shoes too, Make me wake up to you, tonight, every night, Make me so happy, make my darkness all light. Sleep in my heart, love in my arms, ease my mind, Be real like you used to, don't leave me behind.

I love that this jewel of a romantic sonnet is in 11 syllable verses. As I once wrote often in 11 syllable verses back in the early 70's, finding it gave bit more freedom , especially in sonnets. A7 and a fav.. great work my friends!

When two loving hearts sing we have to listen to the melody they produce! Excellent collaboration. A seven to each!

Hello White Wolf and yes Darren too. To you both this is marvelous and very smooth not to mention romantic. And yes what a statement "to be with you" so much thought there within those words. Congratulations to both of you in working together to create timeless poetry. Well done entirely.
