Love in the distance

"

With a love

By Jack Ivey

 

 

O’er the wisdom of valleys and fields all aglow

Neath a sky ever wanting and true

To breathe of this earth O’ its wonderful flowers

As my thoughts seem to whisper of you

 

While the rush of the wind dances sweet on my brow

In an offer of love which I feel

Standing high on a hill overlooking the world

Every moment before me so real

 

So I’m wondering if as a new day does dawn

Silent moments that tend to relieve

Will your heart seek the future right here in my arms

Is this something your dreams do perceive

 

Mounted distances play as the rain it does pour

And the sadness of missing now reigns

Would you take me, this man now in need of your charms

O’ to love me eternal again

 

With a stone I do toss in directions I’ve known

But to follow the arc of descent

Call my name and I’ll run to your tenderness touch

Every ounce of my energy spent

 

I may crawl on my knees and my hands in the mud

Scale a mountain now touching the sky

Swim an ocean until my horizons have come

Swallow tears my exhaustion has cried

 

Still to harbor the strength that will keep me in stride

I shall fly like the wings of a dove

Never ending this journey I know in my heart

Shall reward me with your tender love

 

For the dreams that I carry and wear in my heart

In a focus unwavering true

Brings the joy that I long every step, every mile

With a love that I promise so true

"I may crawl on my knees and my hands in the mud
Scale a mountain now touching the sky
Swim an ocean until my horizons have come
Swallow tears my exhaustion has cried"

I can almost feel the exhaustion....and have been there.
Very nicely written.

Its early and I am still cranky so romance is not even on the radar - but even a grump like me has to soften a bit as I read this. I always appreciate "technique" and the flow of this was natural - lyrical and of course I am impressed by that - but there is a transparency to this that is warm and wonderful and brings out the part of me that considers things like love....its wonderful. Head nod to you, Sir.
