Another Day

Another Day

A Poem by Jack...
"

Just another day? Never when I have you

"

 

Another day

 

And the skies find blue

On this morning in the city

With the temperature so warm

As I stand to find the meaning

Over asphalt centered lanes

With the street lights set on twinkle

When a billboard reaches out

With a message for the masses

Still my every thought is you

And I dream

 

~Chosen by my eyes to see the wonders love is bringing

Floating in my mind like endless butterflies a’ winging

Melodies of love as every meadowlark is singing

And I dream…oh I dream~

 

People rushing by

At an endless rate of hurry

With their boot straps in a bind

You can see their frowning faces

That watch upon their arms

Flashing minutes changing hours

Till the meetings that they meet

And the notes they will be taking

Still my every thought is you

And I dream

 

~My heart it skips a beat within the rhythm of your smile

Sea shells on a beach now dance in ocean waving style

Meadows filled with green where we may lay a little while

And I dream…oh I dream~

 

Traffic jams ensue

Waving fists and shouting plenty

Driving slower than a snail

Move along we’re in a hurry

But the radio does play

I ignore the mass confusion

For the song that I now hear

Is the one you like to dance to

For my every thought is you

And I dream

 

~Cotton candy clouds project the colors of the evening

In and out of life with all the happiness now weaving

I am coming home, your open arms so soon receiving

And I dream…oh I dream~

I hear your heart is longing for the simple life from the mass confusion of city life where everything is so commercialized and fake in that concrete jungle for you want to be in the arms of love and nature...Another wonderful write Jack...:)

My pleasure ...Any time...:)
Yeah, pretty damn fantastic. You are on a roll my friend. And I think this is the best yet. Love the interplay of the romantic with the city grind. In particular I like the city imagery, but I always prefer naturalism to romanticism, the gritty to the smooth. Awesome.

Thank you so much my good friend.
And you dream, now write about how this dream comes to reality, that after the traffic jam she is there for real, not a dream and you are listening to the song she loves dancing to. Great write as usual my friend
