Did you ever
Pull a star straight from the sky
place it in your lover's hands
gift of me to you from I?

Did you ever
Look straight into their eyes
see the moon upon the dais
burning love as sun does rise?

Did you ever
See the sadness of their tears
unfold within their humour
as you calmed all their fears?

Did you ever
Hold their hand within your grasp
love giving comfort
to all questions they may ask?

Did you ever
Give all of you
body, heart and soul
as lover's do?

and did you ever
Trace your fingers in the air
seeking out the shadow
of a love you can't repair?

You'll always be where you are right now."

This is what I hope to be able to do for someone one day, if not already--everything except for the last verse, that is. Most of the verses were a real definition of true love, and the last one was a sad ending. Thank you Cindy, for sharing.

You cling to your ways and leave mine to me.

All the time.



Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool:
But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet.

I've watched as other do this...never had the kind of love you're describing. This is a lovely poem RG.

I didn't reply earlier...to be honest all your responses made me dumb....Alas I have now found the merest of a squeak...

Elizabeth: You will sweetheart, love is good only when you try to be what you are not that it stops being good...so always be true..

Walt: Thanks sir...

SEA:  I didn't know but I guessed as much ...one day at a time, keep the pebble in your hand, let hope and trust travel though time..

Craig: Hiya sweetheart...yes, I think you do..keep doing so... I have that rainbow upon my wall...still makes me smile at what you knew without really knowing me..

HUSG

Sharon: You're one of life's sacred friends, always giving, being protector...thank you!

HUSG

Peppermint: LOL...leaves the mouth feeling refreshed, clarity then follows or if not, least you smell sweet...*g*

HUGS

Bal;  Only the liquid tilts, never the wine glass...*g*

Charisma: Thanks sweetheart....only beautiful to those that feel, those that don't it;s merely  luggage..

HUGS

Hi Cindy...Yes, a couple of times...and it's wonderful...even the sad part has its reasons planted for growing.  Beautiful poem!
