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

NOTE{ Sweet Memory)

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.
