Our Taboo love.

I left our farm
to dwell in his mansion,
a grand name for his
quaint caravan
pulled along by  Jessie
the stalwart  grey cob.

Shunned by my kinfolk.
Banished  from his Romany roots,
we  travelled our lonely
way into the future.

His seeds that I germinated
were scattered carefully
after many years
of tender nurturing.

Alone again, our days
growing  fewer
we were happy
to be clasped
in out taboo love.

Lovely. Sounds like lore. I love that!! I want someone to tell me stories of long ago. I don't think I ever grew up when it came to that. So sweet, and loving. So much
