Long Ago
A moonlit August night, was it long ago?
You captured me with your glance
I felt the heat of love grow
You took my breath away
Head over heels, as they say
Summer romance began
Without rules, without plan
Was it so long ago?
But now I feel despair
Winter chill, it has filled the air
Icy darkness is everywhere
See my bitter teardrops flow
Alone and helpless in the lonely night
Without your smile to make my spirits bright
I miss your arms that used to hold me tight
It was long ago
A cold December night- it's begun to snow
I long for soft summer light
Tell me, now where did it go?
The trees look gray and bare
Come back my love so fair
Summer dreams, they have died
I feel empty inside
Where's my love long ago?
I cry in the winter breeze
Summer love trapped in frozen seas
I am lost, stumbling on my knees
See my bitter teardrops flow
You broke my heart the day you said good-bye
You stole my sunlight from a tranquil sky
You took my soul, and still I don't know why
It was long ago
Yes, now I feel despair
Winter chill it has filled the air
Icy darkness is everywhere
See my bitter teardrops flow
Alone and helpless in the endless night
Without your smile to make my spirits bright
I miss your arms that used to hold me tight
Oh, so long ago

Tropical Beach
Soft sunlight, white sand
Clear dawn greets placid blue sea
Palm trees wave "hello"

Robert Nester Poem
All Alone in the Silent
Silent field, waning light
Misty rain is falling
Darkness looms before a storm
Autumn breeze, coming night
Distant voice is calling
And your face appears once more
Looking at your grave, I can't believe
That your life was taken
And I can't conceive
That my dreams were crushed in just a moment
All my hope is gone
And my world is dead without you in it
All is wrong
I cry in the night time
I can't hide my grief
My soul's been battered
There's no relief
I cling to deep memories
Times that seem so bright
Here I stand, all alone, in the night
Life's short, goes fast
No time to spare
Sun's rays don't last
Why is fate unfair?
And I cry in the night time
I can't hide my grief
My soul's been battered
There's no relief
I cling to deep memories
Times that seem so bright
Here I stand, all alone, in the night
Crumpled rose
In the rain
Whispered words unanswered
All my prayers that die in vain
