My beautiful Daniela

Sweet memories of youth.

My beautiful Daniela.

(Written when my heart and soul was alive and free to love without fear. Written in November 1978)

 
My world was wild and crazy.
 
I'm slow down by a look of beauty and softness.
 
Her blue eyes were clear as a early morning sky.
 
Her long blond hair was blowing in the gentle breeze by the small lake
on a warm Spring day.
 
Her white summer dress showed a perfect body in the warm Spring sun.
 
Her gift of a sweet smile left me wishing to know her name.
 
I followed her.
 
She stops. Told me. "I know you.
 
You are the laughing American."
 
I was known for my drinking and being a joker.
 
We walked together.
 
She told me all her dreams.
 
I told her my dreams.
 
Our hands felled together on a beautiful hot Spring day.
 
By the light of  candles and sweet red German wines we begin to learn to  love.
 
Soft kisses lead to passion and desires only seen by the darkness of the lonely  night.
 
Now I have my lady in dressed in white.
 
My lady who teaches  me to love being alive.
 
I'm complete for the first time.
 
My Daniela, always complete.
 
In clothing or waiting for me nude on our soft bed.
 
She is a gift to my eyes and heart.
 
She fulfilled my soul and spirit.
 
I bring her close.
 
Whisper. "You are my dream.
 
You would be my Angel in sweet dreams till life leave my body.  
 
I love you my beautiful Daniela."

Author's Note

A old poem. Youth is the sweetest wine. We need to swim in the mystery and passion of the opening of true love. Usually happen once once in a lifetime.

Line 2--I'm "slowed" down by a look (vision might work better here) of beauty and softness.
Line 6--Her gift of a sweet smile "leaves" me wishing to know her name.
Line 17--Now I have my lady dressed in white.
Line 26--You "will" be my Angel in sweet dreams till life "leaves" my body.

I just love poems and stories which refer to passion and intimate love in a respectful way. This poem was a joy to read and makes one reflect on that special love that may have found its way to our life. A beautiful and lovely write!

There is nothing that can ever compare to a first love. Very tender and sensitive.

Very good, very nostalgic. You captured the tone of remembering the past pretty well, these are the best works, when you can capture a moment perfectly years later. Great job.

Such a sweet love story! Yes that kind of love does happen once in a lifetime usually, but sometimes you are truly blessed and can live and love again. Never give up. Well done. Keep on penning.
