Forever again

~

 

I stood in the corner with stars in my eyes,

such magical thoughts on display

A poetic verse coming as no surprise,

it's funny the things I might say

 

While counting each petal I pulled from a rose

and leaving the mess far behind

I reached to the heavens, the tip of my toes,

for something that fell from my mind

 

With sparkles and sprinkles in colors so bright,

to carry the less of the load

So tied up in knots that were pulled ever tight

and scattered about on the road

 

I pulled out my pen and the cleanest white sheet,

a canvas of paper in hand

To write down these thoughts if we ever should meet,

just hoping you would understand

 

I folded it neatly and tucked it inside,

then scanned every face in the crowd

When spying such beauty, you just couldn't hide,

my heart started beating quite loud

 

I summoned the courage and called out your name,

your smile it grew ear to ear

You ran through the people, I just can't explain,

that something so special was near

 

I loved you forever but that time has gone,

still you were my wonderful dream

With every sunset and every dawn,

your beauty a part of my scene

 

You grabbed me and kissed me with stars in your eyes,

just hoping my thoughts I had penned

I gave you the poem so you'd realize,

I'll love you forever again

Endearing, enchanting, flows of the tongue so effortlessly in delightful rhyme and rhythm, makes me think of the poetry by Lewis Carrol and I can pay you no higher compliment by comparison!! 🍀🍀🍀

' I loved you forever but that time has gone,

still you were my wonderful dream

With every sunset and every dawn,

your beauty a part of my scene '

[willweb]

That sounds wonderful to me. I was only hoping for a smile but I like that much better. : )

[DIVYA]

A poem of anticipation in love. Wistful and cheerful at the same time. I love the uplifting note on which the poem ends. Love is love, even if just in dreams.

Thank you again Divya for always being so nice to me.

[DIVYA]

You are appreciated very much, dear friend. Keep writing always.

[Soren]

Touching and full of wonderful images. I particularly loved the lines " I loved you forever but that time has gone" that was finalized so well with the last line "I'll love you forever again" This poem's structure allowed it to flow from beginning to end.

Thanks so much Soren. I appreciate your visit.

This was a nice read this morning. I fully understand 'forever again' with every ounce of my soul. Some flames are forever burning. Thanks for sharing this, I enjoyed it!

[willweb]

Thank you Ann. You are so right...some flames will never be extinguished. I appreciate your visit and kind comment this morning.

Beautiful word choices here, and I love the "forever again" aspect, a reincarnated love.

[willweb]

Thanks so much Linda. I believe it definitely can be.

While counting each petal I pulled from a rose
and leaving the mess far behind
I reached to the heavens, the tip of my toes,
for something that fell from my mind

Love those lines especially Will
Beautiful poem

[willweb]

Thanks so much again my friend. I am happy you enjoyed this one.

Class! You turned the concept of a thought struggling to be thunk and disentanglified the compendium of thoughts and other distractions that I find more and more these days (Did I switch the oven off) into such an eloquent tale that I can barely believe I deleted my last attempt because I kept wondering if octupus have favoured feet and why the postman always waits until I'm passing the front door with a coffee in hand to rattle my letterbox like a gestapo officer, forcing me to peel myself from the ceiling and mop up the puddle I just made... Sometimes it's puddles 😊

[willweb]

Thanks for the visit my friend. You mean they offer home mail delivery service where you live? Wow, what a concept.

Allegedly, or as they prefer to call it "you were out, so pick it up from our nearest depot, just a handy 18 miles away, within a fortnight please" 😊
