“If When In Autumn”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~

If when

The trees sway and sing,
and breezes caress
speaking your name,
inside me flows
deeper than before,
I feel your warmth,
see white clouds in
the sky and swallow
the breath of you…

If when

the cold of winter stalks,
takes me into its self,
I know of you
as you touch, my
lips melt with
the burning fires
of yours, willows
sway to and fro
calling near the stream…

If when

a loving dove flies
with your tenderness
placing it in my heart
as it sang of you,
it flows into
my thoughts…

And when the trees shiver

as their blanket falls,
and the silence beckons
without birds song,
I whisper of times
ago when we met,
the closeness of two,
and
I shall always love you
until the end of time…

I enjoyed this much, so nicely written.

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn
