Distant Time

They met on a night of rhyming delight
The weather was warm and the stars were bright.
I believe the poem launching the air
Was something about a home comings prayer.

Where cherry blossoms  filled the trees
That cast a scent of lovers breeze.
And where the lover could not wait
The coming of that fate full date.

To take her in his loving arms
And feel for real her loving charms.
To touch her with finger tips
To kiss the real of her lips.

Pressing to him her open soul
The other part to make him whole.
They cried a tear it would appear
And fantasied the ache of near.

Now these friends of poets rhyme
Suffer they in distant time.

I'm not going to say much to you regarding this write...
Other than it's exquisiteness of heartfelt expression thru rhyme...
Leaves a reader delighted they didn't miss reading your poem

Seymour~
This is just the prettiest thing.
I'm saving it for special late-night meanderings through favorites.

Very special it speaks.

although the entire piece was a wonderful read, I have to say...that when I finished reading the above lines, I had a lump in my throat. Those words closed this piece up perfectly! I loved this and will read it again.
Well done.
