Sharing Desires

If she'd use just a little bit
of common sense she'd know that
I'm the right man for her and
she would never let me go.
But she lets her fears get in
the way and her desire for freedom
and travel and adventure.
She wants to marvel
at ancient Greek ruins.
She wants to climb
the Eiffel Tower.
Sail on Venice canals.
Take a gamble in
Monte Carlo.
She wants to walk on
the Great Wall of China.
Gaze upon pretty Geisa
girls in Japan.
Swim in the warm
waters of Florida.
She wants to understand
what makes the Grand
Canyon so grand.
Honey, I have all
those desires too.
I just want someone
to share them with
and I thought that
someone was you.

That's very lovely, James! I know someone who just thought this way too when she was young .... whenever there was talk of engagements, I just had to flee into freedom. Until the one stepped into my life! Maybe you are the one for her? If you can share these dreams she might be happy to realise them with you.
Good luck!
Love, Margherita

Those fears can be real convincing... I hope she can see past them soon.

I liked as usual

Thank you Margherita, Rosepetals and Enchantress for the nice responses...
We definately share the same desires for travel...and we share many other desires also...such as chocolate kisses...as for marriage...thats a big committment that I seem to want to discuss more than her...James

Had to catch with you James. Glad I did. She will see!  How can she not? A man with such beautiful verses in his heart...not so easy for a woman to walk away!

Hello James

I have been to many of the places you mentioned and it is true that the experience is so much better if you are able to share it with someone special.

Take care.....Sue

I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
