Waffles & Warm Milk

Waffles & Warm Milk

A Poem by Simon Welsh
"

Enjoy.

"
I'll kiss your hand as a gesture of kindness
because we both see the world as grey
I just want to sleep forever and
you need to escape

But there's no comfort like those sacred evenings
curled up in the soft embrace
of waffles and warm milk

I wish I could see the world through your eyes
that beautiful sun reflects gently
and I have a new perception of beauty

I'll kiss your hand as a gesture of kindness
because this rain blesses us with sadness
Maybe I could wander through your dreamland
as welcomed as any friend new or old

But there's no comfort like those sacred evenings
curled up in the soft embrace
of waffles and warm milk

Interesting one, though the ending left me in a puzzle.

I, like eglantine, don't see the poem as a whole, honestly, the first stanza only is what made it for me, the rest seemed a bit drug out. CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, and I won't tell you to change your work. You're very talented, keep it up

Lovely poem! Waffles and warm milk sound so comforting. I liked the symbolism and the tone of yearning in this poem. Nicely done Elliot!

'because we both see the world as grey
