EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (14)

 

I’ve climbed the Himalayan Mountains

And walked the great lakes shore

I’ve seen the exotic Land of Smiles

And watched the glaciers thaw

But I came to the clear conclusion

I can’t live without you anymore

LOVE AT ITS ZENITH

 

She looked at me

With those wondrous eyes

Mysterious bright blue eyes,

That could see inside my soul

Then she gave me one of her smiles,

A truly amazing smile

That says hold me close,

Kiss me, stroke my hair,

You’ll never have too miss me.

Then we embraced

A wonderful sensual embrace

Where we seem to merge into one entity

Then as we part she smiles another smile,

Which speaks another language,

And she leads me off to bed

Where we melt together in passionate congress

And love reaches its zenith

Afterwards in the afterglow

She wears contentment on her face

And her cheek bares a rosy blush

As she lies draped across me

Like a robe of exquisite silk

I love it when she lies beside me in bed,

I love her breath on my skin

And the smell of her hair

But most of all

I love her loving me

THANK GOD FOR FREINDS REUNITED

 

She had been on my mind

A great deal of late, it seems

Images and moments of her

Vividly filling my dreams

 

Though thirty years had passed

All too quickly as a matter of fact

I decided I would Google her

And that’s not a euphemistic sexual act

 

Though that is a delicious thought

But a global search on internet

Producing the usual multitude of hits

Most of them spurious you can bet

 

Amongst the list before me I found

A teacher very well respect they say

A dancer and a musician but not her

But apparently, I could buy her on eBay

 

So, I thought I might just Yell

Not at anyone necessarily

But search through the online

Comprehensive Yellow Pages directories

 

However, it proved fruitless

As I didn’t know what town she was in

Or if her name had changed

It was difficult even to begin

 

Then I had a brain wave

And I went to Friends Reunited

There at least I may have a chance

After login in I actually got exited

 

First, I checked workplaces,

We worked together for a while

But no entry of her name

Not to worry the site is versatile

 

Then I checked the schools

All the schools within 20 miles

But no entry of her name

Not to worry the site is versatile

 

I checked the Armed forces,

The Duke of Edinburgh award scheme

College and university

And then clubs and teams

 

That only left streets to check

I knew where she lived long ago

30 years ago, at least

But the name and number, no

 

I could have driven straight to it

But it was 100 miles away

It was so frustrating

And I almost gave up that day

 

Then I suddenly realized

I could find the street on Multimap

I traced the route I would have taken

And I found her street on Multimap

 

So quickly I entered the street name

On Friends Reunited

And lo and behold there was her name

And I got really exited

 

Quickly I sent her a message

I hope it’s not treated as spam

Or even worse than that

She doesn’t remember who I am

 

Then every day I check my mail

Hoping for a reply from her

And look on the site at my inbox

And every day there is nothing there

 

Weeks had gone by, and nothing came

Then a message from her so sweet

She did remember who I was

And she wants us to meet

 

I’m a bit nervous and apprehensive

And worried about the event

Anyway, nothing ventured, nothing gained

I’ll let you know how it went

EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (13)

I’ve sailed from the Bell Rock Light House

Where the North Sea swells

And to the Newfoundland grand banks

Where the hardy mariner dwells

But on my own it was so unfulfilling

Having you with me is what tells 

THE BOUNTY OF OUR UNION

 

The sun set the sky ablaze

In the silent dawn

Before spilling golden light

Through the window

Illuminating the room

Disturbing my slumber.

Through sleep filled eyes

I gaze at the window,

And on the sill

Framed in the sunlight

There sits the bounty of our union

Her golden curls aflame

In the morning sun

Smiling that familiar

Heart melting smile

But that time it was heartbreaking

Because it was a smile

I would never see again

On the face of my daughter

In earthly form

A THIRD KISS

 

A third kiss

Is eager, yet restrained

Slow, yet purposeful

And when lips meet

Hearts start racing

But each moment,

Is savoured

This kiss, though not life changing

Will be remembered

EVERY CORNER OF THE WORLD (12)

 

I’ve walked the Mongolian steppes

And felt the desert heat of the Sahara

I’ve climbed Virginias Blue Ridge

And felt the coolness of Niagara

But every step was worth it

Because it delivered me to Sara
