As I contemplate the passing,
Of the shuttle beam of time.
And I wonder at the fading-
Of my feeble lines of rhyme.

And I wonder if they touch you-
Within your hidden nook,
And lull you into dreamland,
Like the dancing of a brook?

Do you ever think about me?
Do you wonder where I dwell?
I have often woven webs of words-
To trap you with their spell-

Yet all my snares you've broken.
How I wonder where you've gone...
Are you thinking of me, darling?
As I sit here all alone...

Could you tell me that you love me?
Only once, dear, that would do...
Would you shed a tear in passing?
For a man in love with you.

Morning cowboy..
Such an ache to this write...
you always have a story for us..and so well told too.
Nicely done...much enjoyed.
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~

Now while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again..and again.

Hey GS, this really tugs at heart strings.  Another beauty you gift us with.  

The greatest beauty on earth, is
found in the hearts of those
who love....
