Half a Heart

waiting on fate

dusty faded love letters on the dash of an old truck

rusting away in a pasture of spring daffodils

inscriptions of young hearts with beautiful dreams

always in my heart and on my mind

 

her beautiful eyes were blue like an april sky

hair soft as mare tail clouds on a windy day

a voice so soothing like a gentle midnight breeze

her peaceful heart always warms my heart

 

every few years we reach out in troubled times

to each other with a call or letter

one heart breaks... one trys to mend

then all goes quiet once again

 

maybe next time we will run to each other

going for broke...tossing everything to the wind

like chasing fate.....before it's too late

No. It's perfect. In every way, it's perfect beyond measure.

thank you my secret admirer, I admire your excellent taste. Seems we may have met long ago. Maybe in a most romanic setting.

[Lisa]

I think you are very likely correct :) You make my heart smile!

[Hutch]

This poem isn't lame at all! her beautiful eyes were blue like an April sky, hair soft as mare tail clouds on a windy day are great lines. It could use some improvement though; some of the lines are a bit weak(that's just my opinion though), but even so, this is a really great, beautiful love poem. Good job! Keep writing!

[Hutch]

Many thanks again DoormanDan! I'll keep chipping away at it! Thanks again

[Hutch]

That's going to need a major overhaul!
