I knew an April once!A Poem by Wandering MinstrelI knew an April way back then
her eyes were like the rain all misty blue they deeply held her dreams and every pain she begged me to remain and keep our world the same her lips were temptresses they beckoned like two tulip petals oh how they quivered when we kissed my heart took hours to settle my blood was molten metal but then came May a lovely lass she stole my soul and ran across green fields of dandelions you see she had a plan for me to be her man her back was warmed from early sun she snuggled close to me and in her whispered promises I heard eternity but it was not to be for June stretched lazily around my soul with her embrace she offered days that had no end with joy I kissed her face in that summer loving place we walked across the hazy heat that rose like passions fire and I swore I would stay where her love always took me higher but Autumn with her tawdry laugh and multicolored dress put spices in each kiss we shared I swear she tasted best I hardly got much rest she'd blow across my limbs stripping me bare and tumbling down she'd rake her nails across my back then leave me there spellbound The memories of these past loves that I've known as time floats by have carried me through winters blasts when blizzards fill the sky and fires warm my sighs for it is here I understand as white flakes fill the land that I will be a lonely man till I mark my dates with Jan © 2014 Wandering MinstrelReviews
