Where no tyranny is tolerable

0 posted 2000-12-07 02:10 PM


If you are viewing this by the light of Darkness,
that illuminates the night,
so much the better;
for there are things
that only darkness dares reveal.
And if we arrogantly say
that only Dark obscures things,
then, why not Light?
And should we foolishly contend
that only Day reveals things,
then, why not Night? ...
And every one knows what the night is for ...

First, it might be best
he does not know what you are doing,
what you are thinking, and planning ...
for he has learned enough
and lived enough to know
that talk is cheap,
that almost anyone
can buy the gifts
and learn to say the words.
And you must love him to begin.
Don't wait to say you care
until the end,
else he simply won't believe you.
phone him first;
More than once or twice,
but not too many times,
just enough to tell him
you are different,
just enough to show him
that you care.
    >
And when you ask him what he likes, do it directly;
and should he be uncertain,
Take his hand,
handle him with kind and gentle patienceand he will reward you
by telling you the truth,
and he will come
to love you all the more;
and you will have his confidence
for LIFE!
When you know that he is out,
show up at his favorite haunt,-
where he least expects to see you.
Travel as he does,
And bring your friends to meet him too,
and let him hear you tell
how you adore him.
And when you are at table,
wait on him.
notice what hi likes;
keep his plate and glasses full.
Indulge him,
quietly,
so no one else need know,
just he, and you.
Tell him how you love to watch
his face in fascination--
the ever-changing panorama
of his moods
that flicker there,
the roiling, beating passions
of his heart
that mirror there.
Tell him how you love to hear
the rhythm of his voice,
the cadence of his words,
Killing you softly
with his song,
the way he makes you cry,
the way he makes you think, and smile, and laugh,
the way he lets you see
all the color, light and music
filling and resounding
in his soul.
And do not rearrange your world for him
don't try to reorder his own;
for he has had enough
of people doing that.
Do not bend over backwards just to please him,
for he will know that you are doing it,
see that you are faking it.
It is better to be direct, FORWARD and true.
It is better to be genuine and real.
Remember
not to get too close too soon;
he may be wary.
Don't be discouraged if he says
he doesn't want to get involved,
because your friendship is for LIFE!
You know more
of what is in his heart
than he, at first,
may think you do.
Well ... ...
Isn't this more fun
than doing housework?

Jaime, indeed, this works both ways...and is SO much more fun than housework!

Jaime I have to agree with my poet pal Sunshine this does work both ways but then why couldn't the reader... male or female take it the way that it suits them from their perspective...poetry is about sharing a distinct type of language different from the norm and you sure have done that very well here and the perspective of the reader is going to differ but all will enjoy I gaurantee.....well done !!    ethome

yes, it is more fun  

What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life.
