Arabian Nights Romance

Apparently Yuval and I are in collaboration mode today lol. This one done a little differently then our last one.

  

Underneath the moon

Of this Arabian night

With you, my dark sultan

My heart has taken flight

 

As we ride side-by-side
Around nothing but sand
Two souls become one
As you're holding my hand

 

The sweet scent of jasmine

Fills the desert air

With sand like velvet

One romantic affair

 

The hills up ahead
Getting closer and closer
When I look in your eyes
My hearts' journey is over

 

Our love, almost ancient

Like the waters of the Nile

Even the pyramids know

Every moment is worthwhile

 

You'll be the first and last
The big love of my life
As beyond the night's mist
I see my favorite wife

 

You rein king of my heart

My love with raven mane

The dark sultan of my desires

And I, your Scheherazade

  

Behind every great man

A great woman you'll find

My heart belongs to you

Desert flower of mine

Rayne, this is beautifully done, hon. You would never know that two of you wrote the same poem. The flow is exquisite and the content is beautiful. I really can't say enough about Yuval and your effort on the collaboration. This is the BEST I have read of one in this variety...GREAT job!

Reading this collaboration, i feel that the two of you, have been writing as a team for years. The subtle nature of the way, you express the feelings and emotions of both sides in this poem. The texture of the poem, has me wanting to read more of your works. Thank you for sharing this very romantic poem with us.

Of course, I love the first two lines of the last stanza! Beautifully written!
