I Saw You There |

I saw you there beside the pond. I couldn’t move, could not speak. Why? Why for you am I so fond? It is your shimmering eyes I seek. Birds effortless fly all around you saying to me you are my one dream. Telling my mind things I must do. Even then, my limbs do heavy seem. Laughing, smiling, twirling around. Such grace, such beauty my eyes see. Given my limbs the power to bound for I would come to let you be free. Let me move, as my destiny is near. Give my lungs fresh air to once call My mind whispers a word to hear and with it, I have then said it all. Sparkle of shimmering waters nearby gives to you an aura I must once feel. Whispering pines sing a song clear. My love, my feelings of you so real. Listen to the thoughts I would share for they are of a love ever so great. Come to my arms for I will then care for of love’s hunger we shall have ate. |

My brother has a phrase for a beautiful woman, he says "she's a dream walkin' this reminded me of that. I bet you close your eyes and write these words they are beautiful. Kathleen--(Kay) |

I enjoyed this poem spoken from the heart. And since I will always be a Carolinian in my heart, I enjoy reading poetry from other Carolineans. |
