Waiting For the Day Love Floats My Way

Waiting for the day love floats my way
Hoping for one that is here to play
So many gone by in the past
The further it seems I have to cast
Looking for love that won't surpass
One that can fly without having to crash

Giving it my all
Really wanting to hear the right call
Taking my time being sure not to fall
tearing down this massive wall
That has things coming to a crawl
I'm in it for the long haul
Breaking through this windfall
Plunging forward wanting to recall
A love that stands ten feet tall

One that leads straight for fun
That won't make us feel under the gun
Something beautiful that feels like we have won
Our eyes wide open
Making sure I am scoping
All the opportunities that I have awoken
Hoping the next lady can see
How much my love flows free

That will help us define
A love that will fall right in time
One that I can keep as all mine
A woman who is kind that wants to find
That thrill that makes time stand still
Making us both feel like this is the real deal
Love that brings stars to our eyes
That looks like a beautiful sunrise

Hello Jack Cooper It seems we are looking for the same type of love. I hope that we both find it one day soon. Have a nice evening my friend.

Hi Jack, I enjoyed reading this excellently written piece expressing a longing for love - the kind of love we all hope and pray for - the kind that makes us feel alive - the kind that is true and lasting! Well done, my friend, this is truly a romantic gem! Hugs and love. Pandita
