Upon a Tranquil Hill

Sitting in my rocking chair thinking of the past Recalling precious moments good times that we had Of the way my young heart lurched each time we'd meet up I have never yet forgot feelings of young love..
* * * * * Hold me close to your heart as you did before When we danced in moonlight beside the sea shore The exquisite feeling of falling in love Enhanced by the glittering crystals above. Whisper endearments that I so long to hear The way that you did in days of yesteryear Soothe me to sleep when day’s been weary and long Raise me up in the times I need to be strong. Relight the fire that burned brightly in our hearts Those days when we could not bear being apart When the world was ours and we sat up all hours And days were lovingly showered with flowers. Say you love me truly, again and again Sing a loving song to me in sweet refrain Write romantic poems meant only for me Read them to me sat below our aged oak tree. Though life can be daunting, at times glad or sad Let’s reminisce glorious moments we had When we were young with our dreams yet to fulfil And the world stood still upon a tranquil hill.
