WHEN YOU SIT NEXT TO ME

 

When you sit next to me

The skies seem to brighten

I feel sunlight on my skin

And all my senses heighten

Just being in such close proximity

Makes my old heart lighten

Just imagine if you only knew me

Then I’d be as invincible as a titan

RADIANCE AND BEAUTY

Radiance and beauty

Seeps out from your every pore,

Pure loveliness

I FEEL SUCH A LOVE

 

I feel such a love

Pulsating through my lonely heart

Rippling through my soul

WOODLAND COURTING

 

Birds are singing high up in the sycamore

Squirrels busy themselves in the chestnut.

Trees sway in the breeze

Limbs out stretched towards the sun

As in the dampled sunlight,

We walk hand in hand below

Slowly wandering the wood

Through shadows and the sunshine

The humming wings of insects

Our only company

In the shade the spiders silk spun web

Awaits its unsuspecting pray

While I am caught in a different web

On a perfect afternoon

That I wish will last forever

IT TOOK A MINUTE

 

It took a minute, or less,

To pick you from the crowd

Within an hour, I truly knew

What a special person you were

By the end of that first day

I had fallen in love with you

Now at the end of your last day I know

It will take a lifetime to forget you

STAR-CROSSED WALKERS

 

A star-crossed couple in the park,

Walking hand in hand in the dark

They don’t care about wind and snow

They have a love to keep them aglow

I CHANGED ON THAT DAY

 

I changed on that day

For the whole world to see

When I asked you out

And you didn’t flee

You wernt rude to me

Or laugh hysterically

Instead you smiled

And then said yes to me

And I changed again

For the whole world to see

When I said I love you

And you said you loved me
