Can we, make?
One day and night,
Magical, just our very own.
Forget the everyday, worries?
Retreat, worldly cares aside.
A secret, secluded destination.
Spirits, soaring to unknown places.
Discover new ecstasy, together
Beyond our know, pleasures,
Take my hand my love,
Let me, show you the way.
Swooping like two red hawks above,
Gliding among the cottonwood trees,
Weaving in and out, wherever we please.
Sunshine, radiating upon us.
Evening falls, gazing mindnight sky,
Counting endless stars above.
Brilliant, glittering and so alive.
Tonight, shining just for US, alone!
Twined as ONE, like my shimmering silver pearls.
Secretly, sparkling by opaline moonlight.
A shooting star ordered, just for you.
Making a wish, upon our destiny.
Staying until pink, breaking daylight.
Creating a magical melody.
Treasure chest of memories,
Keys, locked within our Hearts, forever.

Author notes
This was done,printed on a leafy paper with teal script framed and matted with gol, navy and burgundy and gold frame. I t was a gift for my hubby, our 30th. anniversary. All, he said, was it doesn't rhyme??? I was crushed and have written a couple for him and will write not more! He doesn't even understand the meaning here. Ranchers can be smart enough to build a business and dumb enough to not understand their wife.

You know my hubby hasn't even heard or read a single poem I have written, it is crushing, you put so much into this and I know exactly how you feel for I have been asking the same things for some time now, what seems so simple to us is so hard for them to comprehend sometimes. I can but imagine how it must have hurt you
(((((HUGS)))))))

T'is such a shame he is not 'in tune' with today's poetic works. Some rhyme, some just carry a picture or image but most carry an emotion which carries any great poem higher than simple prose. Great work -tj-

wonderful
This is a beautiful write. I love it. Sometimes men express their thoughts in a way that appears hurtful, I know that from personal experience, but often they don't mean to be hurtful and afterwards they don't understand why women get upset 'sigh'...This is one of the most beautiful and romantic writes I've ever read. I'll bookmark it as my favourite
I especially like the lines:
'Evening falls, gazing mindnight sky,
Counting endless stars above.
Brilliant, glittering and so alive.
Tonight, shining just for US, alone!'
Thanx for sharing and thanx so much for your kind and encouraging comment.
Hugs,
Di
