Inside my head these thoughts drifted about;
an array of reds, yellows, and oranges like autumn leaves
fallen and floating, wind twirling them around;
they lay strewn, landing softly amongst naked trees.
Whisper, whisper, hear that whistling tune?
Te quiero, Te quiero
Ich liebe Dich, Ich liebe Dich
I love you, I love you
The waves lull a ship in their embrace;
rocking and rolling, releasing and revealing
the depths of their blossoming blue traces
rippling the words I am now sharing.
Spraying, spraying, hear the splashing sound?
Te quiero, Te quiero
Ich liebe Dich, Ich liebe Dich
I love you, I love you
Clouds gather, so dark and ominous,
but don't be afraid, they aren't frowning.
The pounding rain so beautiful and luminous;
these drops spoke from Heaven's mouth drowning.
Patter, patter, hear the thunder shatter?
Te quiero, Te quiero
Ich liebe Dich, Ich liebe Dich
I love you, I love you
A curtain has fallen, tightly drawn;
sparkling pin pricks wink from this darkness new...
winking a signal to the coming dawn
of how affectionately near I hold you.
Goodnight dear, dear friend, the stars twinkling true...
Te quiero, Te quiero
Ich liebe Dich, Ich liebe Dich
I love you, I love you
Author notes
A dedication to my German friend Julia...just descriptive...
And I love her, a lot...Relationships are work, and sometimes we are at odds, but even so, she's better than a great friend...she's like a sister to me.
And...not sure if this counts for the seasons, but thought I'd try...

hahah of course it counts for seasons!
it has the word "autumn" in it, does it not?
=P
this is brilliant!
i love incorporating different languages into poetry,
it really gives it something special.

oh, yes, definitely just a friend...
She is my closest friend (next to my brother), a Christian, and you could say we are like sisters...sorry if I didn't clarify that point.
