Compendium of Love Poetry
TOMORROW IS ALWAYS YESTERDAY
The day my love was rejected
My soul itself,was so dejected
All the nights drift into the surreal
My life's..a nightmare..so unreal
Pain touches my inner core
The day she said no more..no more
Concentration just flies away
Tomorrow is always yesterday....
Questions,questions nag my mind
Answers..missing I cannot find
The perfect circle ,broke in two
This curtain obliterates my view
Her eyes said all there was to say
Alone,we went our separate way
Tomorrow is always yesterday
WEIGHTLESS
Love,new love
floats on air,
thermals of desire
fuel
passion's flight;
off the wall,
out of this world,
drifting
together without
a care;
kissing,
missing minutes
become hours,
one dream becomes
another.
ROMANCICAL
we painted rainbows
you and I,
'cross our golden sky;
one by one the years
rolled away,
but a vow,once made,
still lives on,
brightly,as before;
this pot of treasure
worth much more than gold;
riches,untold
to sustain us,as
we grow old;
this love,grows not cold
Note:Written in 2011 to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary
BEYOND LOVE
The sun will rise,the sun will set,
no more love will life beget;
The day will break,the moon to rise,
no more love,as this life dies;
The Summer heat,or Winter cold,
no more love will this life hold;
The Autumn fall,and Springtime green,
no more again,will love be seen;
The wheat will shoot,the grass will grow,
no more again sweet love to know;
The grape will ripen on the vine
no more,no more will love be mine.
inspired after reading an essay by Nicholas Ferrar(1592-1637)
Story of Love
Each whispered word,
the lovers heard;
Each lingered look,
thrills on tenterhook;
Each tingling touch,
as fingers clutch;
then caress and cleave-
Feelings heighten and perceive
a senuous smile,
on lips,tactile;
Twinned thoughts unlaced,
held in passion's embrace.
LOVE ENTERS THROUGH THE EYES
A smile shy across the room,
A frisson tingles as our glances mingle.
Words of warmth in whispers close,
As love enters my eyes.
Lips in passion pulsate,
Co-join,entwine as one.
Thoughts we shared,with souls unbared,
Then,commitment ties
Love launched by your eyes.
AS ONE love story
Each whispered word,
the lovers heard;
Each lingered look,
thrills on tenterhook;
Each tingling touch,
as fingers clutch;
then caress and cleave-
Feelings heighten and perceive
a senuous smile,
on lips,tactile;
Twinned thoughts unlaced,
held in passion's embrace.
