NOSTALGIA

NOSTALGIA

A Poem by Eagle Cruagh

Looking inward and behind.

NOSTALGIA

I tried to write a poem
Because my love she asked me too
She said , "my love, please write for me"
"You say such pretty things
And when we pass from this sweet life
Your thoughts nostalgia brings"

Suddenly her fragrance fills me
Like she is in the room
I close my eyes and flowers bloom
Like photo`s in the air
My sweet fair love reclining now
Like nostalgia , but she is there

Shaking cobwebs from my brain
The mist of coming rain
Morning dew from a lowly branch
Fluttering wings of dove
You live in these and other things
My angel from above

How to make you understand
That life without you would end
You are my sweet eternal love
Our tenderness in all travail
With the certainty of a river`s bend
You rise before me frail

I hope you understand my Sweet
Mere words cannot replace
The warmth we hold so dear
The veils of heaven and the corridors
Of hell will never make this clear
I`m you`re canvas and you`re my lace

---- Eagle Cruagh

As always a wonderful write. Very deep and thoughtful. I love the emotion.

[Frieda P]

This is pure unadulterated love, this is passionate and down to earth in the same breath, a sweet memento of the past and present....stunning Eagle...that last line is delightful...

[Eagle Cruagh]

Thank you, Frieda. There is no compliment so appreciated as that
from another poet, especially a poet as admired and talented as you.

[Frieda P]

The pleasure was all mine, and sweet of you to say Eagle.

[DIVYA]

This is so beautiful, brings me to tears. True love abides with all the travails of earth and passes along with us beyond the heavens. It rules every realm.

[Eagle Cruagh]

The last thing I wish for --- your tears, but they are so appreciated.
Thank you again and again
----- Eagle

[DIVYA]

You are most welcome. The pleasure was all mine.

That was such lovely imagery. Definitely a very sweet poem about your loved one. I'm not so great at reviewing poetry, but I do know what poems I enjoy or do not enjoy, and I did enjoy this.

[Matching Socks]

I came, I read, I enjoyed and it felt good.

Sincerely....

i confess ...
i am a really bad friend (i've read a great saying once "if you want a good friend, be one!") i neglected you, in fact i didn't even know this side of you.
who knew?
she must be very happy!
it is - as always - a great one!

I love your last line, written so lovely. I could truly feel your infatuation with her, really capturing your emotions. Thank you for posting

The third stanza in its entirety spoke to me.
