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

My my my!!!!!! i have no comment!!!! this totally blew me off, it took me out of my office chair, straight to that very place where you are and my my!!!!! if you were mine, i would write about you and how your poetry is exquisite forever....jeez!!! Jack you are really something!!!

[Jack...]

Sunshine, happy I got you out of that office chair for a while...a little vacation never hurt anyone. Thanks so much my friend.

[Vampaslick]

The repetition was splendid throughout this piece. I was constantly being reminded of the pain and what was holding you (or whoever the narrator is) back. Nicely executed :)

[Jack...]

Thanks so very much for your visit today and your kind words to me.

[Angel]

Yeah...this one is definitely a tango...
Once again, you have taken my breath away, my Handsome Hero...

Breathe, Angel breathe....save your breath for that tango, you're gonna need it. :) Thanks so much my friend.

[Angel]

Ready to tango??

[Poetic Beauty]

I love the use of nature's descriptions to paint a picture of the longing produced in this piece.

[Jack...]

Thanks so very much.

[Laura Harrison]

[David Scott]

Oh my Jack... I can see a dream here!
I have spent most of my life dreaming and wishing. I actually have felt this way about a woman as well... a few actually... ha.

I enjoyed the dream you shared and I understand this feeling. It is good to dream as long as it does not keep you from waking up and doing what needs doing. Maybe even to the point of making your dream a reality if possible or if healthy...

We need dreamers Jack and you are one of the best!

[Jack...]

Thanks so much Coach!!!!!! I appreciate you stepping into my dreamworld for a little while David. Indeed, it is fun to dream and it is fun to have these feelings if only to dream them...without these dreams I'm not sure what I would do. Maybe I'd learn how to crochet...hey you never know. :)
