Eternity My Love I kiss the hand of love Under Moon before the morn The battle comes too soon Our love so newly born… The King has called me forth At Glamorgan for he, we stand The Saxons shall meet my sword And freedom for our good land Have no tears my dearest love Have no tears of dire thoughts For I'll return to your sweet arms I vow, though death be wrought Mount Baedan turns red today As swords of men are waved In grasses where they were laid Iron sang of death it made Walk forth on hallowed ground, Where whispers of death be found The hearts of Knights are there In the weep of maidens tears Have no tears my dearest love Have no tears of dire thoughts For I'll return this day, In your heart my love will stay Little had she known An arrow found its home Bent he on shaken knee He whispered his love to thee This maiden lay asleep Restless and weary with weep ..Lov, I am long for holy ground ..Be strong our love abounds Have no tears my dearest love Have no tears of dire thought My life has kept you free In Eternity I wait for thee James Parker Haley © June 11, 2000 [This message has been edited by Haleyja (edited 06-12-2000).] |

Haleyja, this is a great poem, although very sad Je t'aime plus qu'hier et moins que demain." I love you more than yesterday and less than tomorrow (unkown) |

My life has kept you free In Eternity I wait for thee... Parker, this is quite sad, but very eloquently penned... Enjoyed reading this one. Regards, sudhir. My heart is pounding, my stomach's inside out I'm feeling kind-a-shaky, my mind is full of doubt All I ever think about, is fearing fear itself, Wish I could unscrew my head and put it on the shelf Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Don't know what I'm looking at, the lights are all too bright My brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor Sweep 'em up. Throw 'em away, don't want 'em anymore Clouds race across the sky, day turns into night, Still there are the questions, no answers in sight Everything is twisted, everything is oh so tight, Starin' out the window, everything is just too bright Brain's about to crumble, spill out on the floor, Wish I could unscrew my head, and kick it out the door... You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange You know I'm feeling kind-a....Strange ~ Strange ~ Joe Satriani (Flying in a Blue Dream) |

~parker this was romantically sad. i see you can write MANY styles and do them very well i might add. this was poetic perfection at its best. take care. amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

Park, Sad ending here, a different tack from your usual poems, although in the next life they would be together, it is inferred, yes? Corinne |

Have no tears my dearest love Have no tears of dire thought My life has kept you free In Eternity I wait for thee This is just the way I feel right now... I love a girl but she does not want me right now...but it feels like I can wait for eternity... Thank you... -Nando- Ask me how to live your life, and this to you I´ll say: make your choises true and wise, so that when tomorrow will arise, you´ll smile at yesterday... |

Parker* This is an amazing tale you have woven. A touching story of love found and love that is lost...but in her heart this true love shall remain untouched and forever. Ahhhh Parker you are the king of weave for this type of tale. Thank you for sharing this~ |

Nando, you are very welcome. CocoBaci, thank you very kindly. Corazon, its easy to get into them, just put on some fine maiden lace, and shout to be rescued, and many Knights will ride to thee. Marina, I prefer age old romantic charm.. Butterflies, a stranger in my poems, thank you, I don't know about the king, but thanks for the sentiment..... Elvis has left the building..... Parker |
