Waking At Dawn You There In Our Silk Bed

Waking At Dawn You There In Our Silk Bed

Baby fawn, fur so beautiful, new life
A reminder Nature's beauty so true
We wade through this world of hellacious strife
But my darling, I live because of you!
Your bright smile, your beauty truly divine
Waking at dawn you there in our silk bed
Alarm blares out at a quarter to nine
Sweet kiss given, wake up you sleepyhead.

Dawn brings forth a day of pure joy with you
We stroll the beach waves breaking at our feet
You say my lover, I say yes-you too
Life delicious, your lips cannot be beat
Sunny beach gives its gives its pretty scene
We speak of love, life being together

I watch you dressing as you primp and preen
As we live it up in this fair weather.

Robert J. Lindley, sonnet, 16 verses
APRIL 12TH, 1984, EDITED Nov. 1987

Oh, my this is so overflowing with love. Each line overflowing with visual imagery. and a full heart. Satin sheets! Where you strolled. This no mess of words to impress I see it was written in 1984, but it seems like today. Thank you for posting this. Love, Panagiota xxx

Thank you, my friend. Yes, I have had quite a life. My youthful years were indeed quite amazing, etc.. God bless you... And I see that you have too because your own fine poetry and personal standards bear that as proof.
