“FOREVER DECEMBER”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
I’ve seen seasons change every year,
felt the winds blow cold in autumn,
know of leaves falling from trees,
touching of winter, as it will become…

I dream of your eyes searching mine,
feeling silk touching onto my face,
knowing of fingers gentle upon me,
touching of lips soft with grace…

I know of and feel all these things,
to know of you I would remember,
perhaps you would know of desires,
once we meet, in forever December…
~~~~

Title inspired by someone very special, a very good friend...

I love this
Definitely brought a smile to my face.
It brought me to a crisp cold autumn, outside, waiting for soemone I loved.

Keep it up.
Always, GG

BillCharles~

When cold the winds of December blow
I would wish with all my heart
That they carry a warming message
to hold you while we're apart~

Forever is a long, long time
to hold your memory ...
Yet I shall cherish the all of you
until you are back with me~

*Well ... inspire begets inspire~

Melodious swell of your heart-thoughts, my friend~

Oh Bill! this  reaches out to my heart in such a gentle way.

forever is to long to stay
so I promise - just for today
in my heart I will always remember
as you paint me forever December.

Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Now Bill, if it were
Forever December, we'd go bust
buying all those presents
and watching time rust...

besides I'd then be
forever older every day
so let December pass along
and others have their play!

I know this, now.  For it is the state of my current mind.

Thank you.
