There was a time..

There was a time when moonlight spoke of love

    and passionate kisses made your heart beat glad

                when silvery stars shimmered above

                     and the dance of wild desire drove you mad

 

 

There was a time when things you said

      offered the gift of eternity spent

              when misty halos embraced love's bed

                           as lovers shared what was meant

 

 

There was a time we walked in sunlit clover

       and sat 'neath shaded sycamore trees

            'Alas such precious time is over

                   now I cannot taste your lips nor feel love's breeze

This was very lovely. The title reminded me of a movie that I'm watching, but it has nothing to do with this poem. Lol.

but i really liked the clash and that was the whole purpose :)

Powerfully emotional filled with beauty and sadness... First stanza was my favorite, great way to open the poem.

Fran, you are a classy poetess. Your words ignite passion and flare of a seasoned professional. I love to read your work because it is so diverse and romantic. Eloquent penmanship with a melancholy feel. A true work of art my friend.

Beautiful... The flow, the emotions, the background, the atmosphere, the rythm .... it is a journey in itself ...
You are very talented!
Salam to you:)

Great reflective piece,leaving the reader wondering what thief took that time away...perhaps it was "time." Excellent. Rain..
