A woman, like you.

Reading my poetry from 1993. Made me think of a good memory and good time.

                          A woman. like you.

Me and my sweet love  sat on a bench at the Monterey pier on a warm Winter day in 1992.
I held her tightly.
 I whispered softly into her ear.

I want a woman, like you.
A woman with eyes like the deep blue sea.
With the hunger to touch and feel every pleasure.

I need to hear your laughter.
To listen to your stories and great dreams.
To be able to fall into your arms and hold you tightly when the
coldness of the night overtake us.

The kind woman smiled.
Shared warm and sweet kisses.
Told me.

"Love is fair. People who can love without fear. Open secret places and doors.
Feel safe and needed. The award is joy and peace. You are my calm and peace."

I thanked my blue eyed girl.
I told her
"Tonight we dance by the sea. Drink sweet red wine and forget the world for a time.
Allow the sea to sing to us. The Kind Pacific ocean keeps secret of new and old lovers.
Trying to find paradise and safety in love for a moment."

The woman smiled and told me.
"Life is to be lived and celebrated my prince.
Let's go to the sea and we can dance with the moon and the stars.
Tonight we are free and I love you so.
Love is the last freedom. Hold me tightly and never let me go."

The Pacific ocean was alive and well.
Two more lover's joined with the ghost of old lover's and new.
Making the spirit of the sea smile.
Love and kindness is the way to joy and happiness.

Lovely poem dear, Coyote.. very nice work. You have reallly a very bright thinking about love. Your woman's happy and safe around you because she has got such a kind person in a suite of you. You've here poured the drops of love in way to praise the beauty of your beautiful woman into words. Keep writing, dear Coyote. Lovely poem, I really enjoyed reading this shot.

Thank you for the kind words. I was saved by many kind people in California. I learn people had more to do than work and died.

You put a smile on my face with this certain piece. I wouldn't really bother commenting on any grammatical or punctuational errors for that has nothing to do with this review. This certain piece is quite delightful to read. It brings back good memories that I have of the girl I loved the most and still do (even though we're not together anymore). My favorite stanza would probably the second one, for it is true for all men living on this planet. Overall, an excellent write, as always. Not that I think about it, this is not really a review. It's more of a comment on how I perceived and reacted to your write. Anyways, I loved this piece. You inspired me to write something similar, though I might end up crying while writing it. Later!

what a beautiful tale of love

[emmajoy]

For some reason i see you sitting back, thinking aloud, telling your wonderful memories to the wind .. a drifting of past. You always write of love with the gentlest pen, John .. ever the romantic soul behind the memories of war and terrors.

Love without fear, we must all look for it and once found, keep it safe forever and always. You write with great sincerity, and that's such a welcome change from the ever increasing cynicism and arrogance all around. Thank you.

To be free to love and give yourself over to another. Love is vulnerable but it is protected by trust that allows all of those secret doors to be opened. This is a lovely poem and I enjoyed the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean as the observer and guardian.
