Time doth find our Journey Long

Going the distance for love

Time doth find our Journey Long

By Jack Ivey

 

Time doth find our journey long

On scattered wishes wing

To whisper o’er the winter’s wind

Of moments for to bring

 

With moonbeam glow of tempting light

On evening skies doth wane

Of every passing winter night

I call out but your name

 

O' days they pass of falling leaves

Upon the water’s shore

With footprints left along the way

For this that I adore

 

A distant dream a’ calling now

Along horizon’s flare

Endless seems the vision shown

As left alone to stare

 

These steps that we have taken free

Do add of sense and means

If we but reach with heart strength strong

To capture wanted dreams

 

Endeavors long of hours drained

Though still the path shall lead

If in the end your love is mine

Then that is all I need

Thank you for reading

This is absolutely breathtaking...these verses a precious, timeless, and eternal gift of beauty......it flows like a silk lullaby spilled from your heart.....you give reverence to passion, line after line finding the heart in a mesmeric sway....absolutely entrancing...your pen bleeding such powerful shades of inked emotion...I am lost.....in your ink......:)

I appreciate your kind words, they flatter me, though I am merely a wanting poet learning on each step of the journey

Isn't it amazing how the passage into tomorrow is never quite clear, and yet the heart seems to have a hidden compass that guides it right along it's way with such strong guidance...never question the steps we take, nor look back in regret of the footsteps behind us......I adore your poetic heart..:)

Thank you so much, that is good advice I will heed.

Nice Shakespearean flare to it, although I understand this without twisting my brain. Lovely flow of emotions. I love it all, although the second verse is utterly over the moon romantic.

Now that's poetry in motion. Outstanding, simply beautiful.
