Old Lovers Fit Like Cowboy Boots

Tonight the world is reaching for the world I left behind


close your eyes and love me one more time


a kiss from your yesterday has been a troubled mind


close your eyes and love me one more time


drifters know a place to find rest a comfort in heart and soul


so as the dollars lay upon a silver chest


close your eyes and let the passion go


we live in outer shells of conquest and drinking hells


bells of love never pass our way


in her arms I am the best of both lover and friend


so close your eyes and love me one more time


strings of guitar ring across an old dance floor


as the cowboy stagers for the door


the girl hangs on his vest a kiss at his request


just love me one time like before


To night the world is reaching for the world I left behind


a kiss from your yesterday has been a troubled mind


drifters know a place to find rest a comfort in heart and soul


just love me one time like before

Sings like a love song. Truly lovely my friend.

"Old Lovers Fit Like Cowboy Boots" is a beautiful rhythmic composition of poetic excellence. It sings under a special rhythm that reminds one of something between Pantoum and Villanelle. It did impress me for its contents, imagery and rhythm.

I salute You, Poet.

In admiration,


Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU

Interesting the way you bring the past to the present and yet savor both the same. Enjoyed this one...

Be safe,
Karen
