You and I...

I need a vacation with a kind woman.

You and I….

You and I,

I want us to be  in the city of lights.

I want us to drink coffee in the early morning and

we would roam the city till noon.

We would drink the Paris wine at lunch and discuss the poetry and the art.

We would find the ancient city secret places and buy some sweets 

till the late afternoon.

We would drink Hemingway’s whiskey at dusk and 

I would give you long and sweet kisses,

holding you close and I would tell you.

You are my everything, you are my kindest and safest place.

We would dance in the center of Paris.

I would be your Hemingway and you would be my Agnes.

I would reverse the Hemingway curse and 

I would never release you.

Please my dearest love,

come with me to he city of lights.

Let’s fall in love again and again.

Coyote

oh to fly away as lovers do .. not much studied on Hemmingway aside from his persona in war and in peace .. ambulance driver and journalist/writer. .. but who is Agnes in this Coyote Man? I always am taken away with your style and stories of longing and down and nitty gritty love and dreaming .. this is no exception and Hemmingway certainly carries that character well ... an iconic American writer/adventurer in my opinion .. pity his abrupt end .. I suppose so much of his life in pain contributed to it :( your poem, as always inspires me to Romance .. and this one to get more aquainted with Hemmingway ... thanks man! for sharing your wonderful poetry and stories

Agnes was Hemingway WW1 love. She was a nurse and she was marry. She stayed marry and left Hemingway with a broken heart. She was a beauty. Thank you my friend reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

This is excellent poetry, Coyote. Your words reflect freedom, adventure and love in a way that makes reading it fun.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my friend for reading and the comment. I appreciate the kind words and I need a long vacation.

This is absolutely beautiful and feels like a thoughtful love letter to the woman. Perhaps one of my favorites if not my number 1 favorite of yours! I love how sweet it is. The imagery is wonderful and shows off the love in it, the memories, and the feeling of vacations. Which we all need so incredibly bad right now, so thank you for showing your amazing slice of paradise!

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you my kind friend for reading and the comment. I agree. I need a vacation.

reversing that curse...and maybe on the list of "want to do's"
bring in that marlin....in one piece...
so the old man could at last, smile.
this is a gem....I love Hemingway...poetry, art and dancing forever...
as he wrote "less is more" and those hills really do look like white elephants.

Hemingway was the man. You can see his ghost drinking whiskey and talking with the other writers still in Paris. I would love to visit his Cuba home. Thank you Jacob for reading and the comment.

I had a six-toed cat once...
It wouldn't use the litter box, was wild.
had to let it go...wanted to be alone and adventurous...might have been one of Ernest's cats.

Could of been Jacob.

Love love love:)

Dear Coyote this is a perfect lover's entreaty and love poem/song. Beautiful musicality and imagery. I've never been to Paris or Spain or anywhere in Europe but your word-palette of the senses make me long to go... Yes we all need vacations with kind people surrounding us- to share with-to drink and dance with-to love. You correct Hemingway's errors one hundredfold- Kudos! Exquisite write my friend.

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you dear Annette. I agree, all of us need a vacation to anywhere.

[Ziggy Matthews]

I could feel the emotion inside of the words. It's interesting that your note says "Just words." That in itself could have so much meaning! I love the dreaming and fantasy that is presented in the poem. Great job!

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you Ziggy for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

I love this tale of wanting to take a special someone to the city of lights and explore the city and each other.

It is something everyone can relate to at once point or another in their life

[Coyote Poetry]

I still do my dear friend. I am a old man. I would like one more dance with a pretty lady in the city of lights. Maybe two? Thank you for reading and the comment.

[Poetic Beauty]

We all have our dreams no matter our age. I have a dream of going to visit my friend under the desert moonlight just to make new memories and be in his city. Hopeless romantics we are (laughing) makes us feel young.
