What I Long For... |

I long for awesome sunsets Someone to share them with, Romantic walks along the beach A passionate, tender kiss. I long for summer nights To lay beneath the moon, Make love under twinklin stars Or in the park at noon. I long for summer dances In a field filled high with wheat, Or the coldness of a stream Where we could hang our feet. Romantic dinners by candlelight A loving word from you, A warm and steamy bath With bubbles filled for two. |

My dear, such a departure from your usual work!! I hope to see much more of this from you my friend. These are truly the things of which romance is made and I for one practice them all as diligently as I can, as often as I can. ------------------ Life is pain is poetry, at least I'll be productive.

Everyone wants (sometimes longs) for this type of romantic love. You have painted the picture well. I think you may want to consider a different rhyme than "with" and "kiss".... perhaps "I long for awesome sunsets/ With someone I will miss" or, better yet "I long for awesome sunsets/ a rhapsody of bliss". just a suggestion. Otherwise, enjoyed the read. dp |

You got me dreaming! When done reading your poem I just sort of sat back and sighed and... ah well you know what I mean. Your words sent my memory on a trip to another place in time. TY! Angel |

Thank you doreen for the suggestion! I appreciate that! Angel Rand, thank you! That is what I was aiming for. It put quite the vision in my head as I was writing it. I am glad those words could give you a happy moment in time. That is the ultimate comment dear, thank you! |

This poem is very beautiful. It touched my heart. Are there men out there that long for the same things we do? I sure hope so. |

Funny I read this and thought she must surely have all that and more now. She can still make me smile a million miles away. Lovely just lovely look on love. |
