Strains of song float through the air
And remind me of you
Glimpses from the past
Tell of why I love you as I do

Flashes of a night of dance
Or of holding you as you sleep
Of you warm and gentile touch
These memories make me weep

I long to be with you again
To make more memories together
To hold you tight in my arms
And live with you in love forever

This dream of mine keeps me going
Thought the pain runs deep
As time continues its gentile flowing
Love I sew, and love I reap

More than I could have ever dreampt
Each time I think it could not be more
Than what I feel right now
I discover something new that I adore
My love is all for you

Keith

Even in the darkest night, someone will be there holding a candle for you.

This love you speak of must be for somebody very very special.  This is probably my favorite of your poems.

  This was an exquisite poem.  You penned quite a few wonderful lines in this one and they all express undoubtfully how you feel.

Wow, this is the strongest response to one of my poems in a long time.  Thanks all of you.

RB: no chance of that happening....hehehe

Waverly: glad you liked it. and if you want to find that "very very special" person, look in the mirror.  Its for you, and always has been.

Ggrn3: thanks, and it is most definitely how I feel.

Severn A gentile soul, brings gentile words....

SEA: Glad I could make your day a little better.

Once again, thanks.

Even in the darkest night, someone will be there holding a candle for you.

Keith,

Wonderful poem.  It expresses deep emotions that seem like they will always be there.  I enjoyed this one, keep up the great work.
