What Are You Doing Tonight?

Wings of elation and wonder take flight
In breezes that lift me to unmeasured height
The sky’s filled with glittering stars of delight
Tell me, what are you doing tonight?

I’ve never treasured a love such as this
I’ve yet to savor the taste of your kiss
This is a feeling I cannot dismiss
Tell me, what is your notion of bliss?

I was a dreamer of dreams from the start
I am a poet of words from the heart
Somehow my words at the moment seem right
Tell me, what are you doing tonight?

In my dreams to bring the night
I find the words of fancy's flight
closer to thee in harmony
closer to thee, in poetry

Tell me, what are you doing tonight?

I wish I was doing anything close to feeling as good as this poem felt.

Tonight, tonight...what shall I do?
I'll sit and read sweet words from you.
I'll see the letters on the screen
Decipher what they truly mean
Then hear the words come from your mouth
As they had done up in Falmouth
And see the look upon your face
As words you penned with style and grace
And I'll imagine one time more
To hear you knocking at my door.

Tonight, tonight....what shall I do?
The night belongs to me and you.

James, THank you!

Duncan, Maybe you should ask the question
Thanks for your nice comment

You are a man who has launched many ships
You have been one of my favorite pips
Turn away from the shore line and turn toward my lips
Tell me, what are you doing tonight?
Thanks for the poem

Liz
