In your arms I will sleep, in them I will rest In my heart I will keep, deep within my chest. In my thoughts you are, through the waking day In my memory I file, ever there to always stay. Visions from the fog that enter my eyes clear. Thoughts that come like comets from the stars. Flowing water wishes washing over earthen dam. Sighs echoing off distant granite canyon walls. Our love is all these things and so much more. Beauty seen by both, admired and appreciated. Warmth of the sun flowing in veins of hearts. Breeze of contentment cooling the anxieties. Boundless love covering the vastness of earth. Admiration deeper than the depths of space. Kindness of Spring flowers, a gently rain. Trust formed by the mountains high above. Our love is all these things and so much more. Beauty seen by both, admired and appreciated. Warmth of the sun flowing in veins of hearts. Breeze of contentment cooling the anxieties. Boundless love covering the vastness of earth. Admiration deeper than the depths of space. Kindness of Spring flowers, a gently rain. Trust formed by the mountains high above. I feel this when in the Glen of memory. A fresh, flower covered expanse within me. Bees of passion and desire flying endlessly. The light of a full moon entering my eyes. With you...all this is felt..Without you gone. Come to this place where I will comfort. Let my lips feed you the strength of love. Our life’s journey long, steadily goes on.

Magnus, there is so much love in this poem. I loved this verse "I feel this when in the Glen of memory. A fresh, flower covered expanse within me. Bees of passion and desire flying endlessly. The light of a full moon entering my eyes." How beautiful is that..lovely, floria Floria |

the very first poem I wrote was about a glen, so of course I love this. But what I really love about your poetry and what you put up here is there is no pretense, it is sincere and that my friend is rare. Kathleen--(Kay) |

Your first stanza was so pure, it was all I needed to read to know I would love this ( of course I read the rest too)...thanks *s Maureen "For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul." (J.Garland) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (01-29-2002 04:25 PM).] |

"In your arms I will sleep, in them I will rest In my heart I will keep, deep within my chest. In my thoughts you are, through the waking day In my memory I file, ever there to always stay." So romantic and tender! I did more than file this one 'in memory' I borrowed the title and included it in my Plagiarism medley. |
