And I~for you

Just having some fun

 

And I ~ for you

 

And I ~ cling to a fortress

of endless temptation

with rings made of gold

and a tree built of life

 

Faltering corners

in new found dimensions

a little left over

but so very nice

 

Clinging to them

 

And I ~ search in a fountain

with quarters for feelings

so far neath the waters

my song sings alone

 

On sea shells and posters

of rock concert heroes

with hair like a Sheppard

to call the sheep home

 

Calling to all

 

And I ~ call to the mountains

in echoes of sailors

with waves in the morning

and snowcaps at night

 

Floating horizons

alone on the wishes

that winds will prevail

and make everything right

 

Sailing again

 

And I ~ lean on a valley

of tree lines and saucers

with cups filled with coffee

to taste when it’s due

 

With smiles forever

and words down on paper

with love as my meaning

I write them ~ for you

 

Please hear my call

Oh Jack.... I tried to copy a stanza.. First I copied the second.. but then I liked the third and the forth.. I would have had to copy the entire poem... I love it Jack.. This is definitely going in to my favorites so I may read it over and over again.. Just breathtaking and the last line... well any woman would be lucky to have such beauty written to her.. xoxo Rose
