If you were mine...

 

If you were mine…

 

 

If you were mine…our footsteps would

 

dance on moonlit verandas

while candle lit flickerings enticed my smiled reflections

with your arms tightly around me

 

symphonies would play to the rhythm of your charm

as we swayed in the essence of forever

on cloud soft concertos of affection’s melodic whispers

 

eternal echoes would sing in harmony to your eyes,

hauntingly dark invitations to my endless destination,

soothing reflections comforting weathered longings

 

If you were mine…satin beaches would

 

eclipse tan line passions

beneath glistening waves of aquamarine salt water bliss

gently caressing the depth of our love

 

palm leaf shadows of cooling design would weave embracing patterns

of ocean fed breezes tickling our naked forms

as sea foam fingers probe pearl smooth valleys

 

sunset tides would tease beneath star orchid heavens

blooming of every wished for fantasy…

lasting happily ever after upon sandcastles dreams

 

 

If you were mine…my life would

 

be a mosaic of delirious euphoric visions

in constant creative motion delivering sincerely

every ounce of joy your heart could desire

 

painted in the sweet essence of everything that is your spirit

vibrant in wonders of fragrant poetic offerings

versed in accordance with your every need

 

believing that happiness can begin with a smile,

walk along endless streams of worshiped blessings,

remaining satisfied and forevermore yours

 

If you were mine…oh, if you were mine

Jack, I must say that at some point I do get a tad tired of having the urge to tell you what a perfect poet you truly are. This has to be my new favorite poem, it just crawls under my skin.

"Symphonies would play to the rhythm of your charm
as we swayed in the essence of forever

The feeling this stanza gives me is truly... indescribable. Well done, dear friend.

[Jack...]

My sweet friend...you have caused a smile to bloom upon my face this morning. Thank you so very much.

[LadySoDivine]

Your smiles are all it takes to make me happy, my friend. And no need to thank me, giving me the allowance to read your exquisite poetry is thanks enough. :)

If you were mine...oh, if you were mine...I doubt that any of us get through life without meeting someone that does this to us...but not many of us can write such a pristine and breathtaking ode. This one really hits home, as I'm sure it does for many readers of this piece...wonderful work my friend.

[Jack...]

Steve, I always look forward to your reviews of my work. When a great poet like yourself tells me I am good...I almost believe it.

[kublakhan27]

We're very much alike my friend...we both need assurance that what we do is good. But deep down I know I can write, as hard as it is to convince myself of it, and so can you.

Yearning for someone we cannot have dear Jack .Your words are heartfelt and clear.
