                Soon

Do not grieve for me my sweet,
Stay safe and warm your abode.
Taste the good and bittersweet,
Soon I take the homeward road.

I will see you in the spring,
When cherry blossoms line the path.
Wrapping us in beauties cling
And radiance of the aftermath.

Let your mind a moment play
O'er these written words I write,
And they will warm you in a way,
That only words of love can light

It's what I do to keep me sane,
To help me wait the morrow.
I often dream where we have lain,
To lift the weight of sorrow.

Soon my arms will form an arc,
Caressing you with finger tips
Peel away the lonely dark,
Kiss the solid of your lips.    

I can not wait the coming goal,
To hold the other half my soul.

Sy, part of this piece sounded as if they had come from the 1800's...when writing was a part of one's life, and postal letters were anticipated so much...

Again, love your word choices. I think it was the cherry blossoms and solid lips that did it for me.   Thanks again.

Hi Sy,

WOW, sometimes I don't know if I could possibly put words to how things affect me, but your poem I deeply enjoyed in my heart, thank you so much for posting it.

Love, Cerenity
