PLEASE

Bring me air from the mountains
The wishes from all the worlds fountains
Bring me rainbows and sunsets
Show me how big the moon gets
Salt air and dolphin kisses
Little kittin hisses
Save all the winning bets for me
For you see
I can barely breathe
Bring me
Leaves from Arbutus trees
Soft lips that tease
Bring me all the kind things you can gather
Please
Patter pitter
My light grows dimmer
Bring me white roses
Love thrown down in proses
That a woman who loves me composes
My list is hard
I know this
Bring them all too me
It's getting hard to see
Please
Bring me a swans song
Nights long
Bring me the smell of a summer lawn
Butterflies with all their colors on
Don't be too long
Be brave
When you have gotten all that you've saved
Please place them here
By my grave
And pray

A very forlorn writing, Mike.  All of the pleasures of a lifetime, wrapped up in one poem.  Welcome to Passions!

Mike, ~Welcome to Passions~

A wonderful poem. Can't wait to read more of your work.  You will find as you read others, all the beautiful lines and images included in your poem will show up here in theirs, too.

Too many great lines to quote but I, too liked the butterfly line.

Thank you for sharing this with us.
I really do look forward to more of your poetry. So talented, you.

Enjoyed, Pat

..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons..
