Hi as you have all been so kind about my first two attempts I thought I would share this one with you....Its written as a song ...but I think it may work as apoem....It started out as a straight forward love song about the girl my first post was about ( be my friend) ...but it worked better as a kind of stalkers anthem!....not meant to be nasty so please dont be offended!

Those hips
That hair
Those clothes you wear
That meet me smile that fills the air

Those Lips that stare
Your savoire faire
They got me hooked
And I don’t care!

I See you in a magazine……….I see you on the TV screen
I see you and fantasise………I see you ‘n’ don’t rationalise

I see you hold another’s hand..I see you and don’t understand
I see you most every day…………..I want you in every way
          
I see you through strangers eyes.....In that see-through you tantalise
I see you  don´t realise…That..me and you light up the skies

I see you from a foreign land ....I’d feel you with a lovers hand
I see you in a warm embrace……I see me in your lovers place

I see you in a midnight dream…I see no distance in-between
I’ll see you I don’t know when………I’ll see you Just once again

Yes, I think this is a lovely song, dear Ray! When you see her everywhere it is most assuredly a sign that you have fallen in love with her.

Very nice rhythm!

Love,
Margherita

Hi Ray, that's a lovely poem and song, I appreciated the mystery about the girl you described (no physical points, only seeings or feelings)

it's definitely love.
  thanks

Ray,

I love what you bring to this poem.  It's sweet and has longing and also it just reads well.  Good job.

Yo Ray,

This poem has a rather original format that works well for it.  I like it.
