“Dark Night”


 


 


It was a dark night


With no star lights above


Holding your hand in mine


All I could hear


Was the roaring of the ocean!


I met with my only true love…”Nature” tonight


 


~**~**~**~


 


Mother Nature so dear to me


 


~**~**~**~


 


I swear


I will be nobody’s slave


For as long as I may live


As cold winds blow upon my only true love


A few drops of rain fall’ upon me


Oh she had wet my feet as she struck me


Brushing her shoulder upon the sand


No words were spoken


No vows were broken


In this dark night


With no stars lights above


 


~**~**~**~


 


Holding your hand in mine


And within my imagination


I see you standing there


As you sang to me


And made the words sound so sweet


I started to weep


 


~**~**~**~


 


May God protect you dear One


Where ever you may wander


And I will sail upon the sea


On wings of wind so fare


To a place where only you…


And sunshine await’ I swear


I will be nobody’s slave


As I await your return


Standing alone


On this dark night


With no star lights above


 


~**~**~**~

Tinka,

Don't know how I missed this masterpiece my friend - you are the poetess of the beautiful imagery; so vivid and descriptive as to place the reader in the poem - perfection!!

Best wishes,

Robert

Yes! another wonderful poem Tinka

love the sea, on a windy night
allow her to plash, upon my feet
as we walk along,
the sand, our feets will meet.

William ....Love & Peace
