Love Waiting

Dreaming, Scheming

Time is not a favored friend

not when keeping us apart day’s end

it is not the greatest thing

to keep us distant and loneliness to bring

While our hearts sing of love

the sound of cooing our joyful dove

our needs are great, but off time shoves

our touch, our requited love

Circumstance delays romance

our evenings of dinner and dance

our opportunity of holding hands

as we’re walking the ocean sands

We each to have a proper pay

different things would come our way

to end that waiting, waiting throughout the day

and would be our chance of play

Dreaming we are, and feeling

Distant You

While my heart is busy with you

loving, dreaming, feeling blue

because it’s you I want

that distant you

To my life you came quite new

unexpected you came through

a portal on the internet

and you’re the one I can’t forget

The one that touches me deep inside

where I my love too often hide

but with your words well applied

you’ve opened the door, now light abides

With the distance that is here

longest space of which I fear

whose presence may bring love disappear

when all I want is you quite near

And you to swear that could not be

you, give your precious life to me

though time and distance are between

extend their presence to us, quite mean

Each to do all they can

to close each of these troubling spans

so that, touch, we surely can

our lives fulfilled, each our plan

More, Please More

You wait, as should be

on this man, this olden me

to do those things

and home you bring

where life can be

become you see

all promised to be

And can we wait

this time we hate

between love’s find

and peace of mind

your hand in mine

lasting through time

our hearts aligned

And I am sure

there you want more

than a man away

on distant shore

and you to tell

if all is well

what will come

When

more, please more

is ask-ed for

in the course of explore

what can be to assure

your heart and mine

that we are fine

Together

Hope, Abiding

Forward time, as life aligns

us together, our hopes to find

when distance has been measured

and time has flown

and in our mirror

a couple is shown

clear reflected

I love you then, as do you

I love you now, and you are true

close this distance, as we can

sure somehow is gone the span

not to the fates do we ever bow

together, future becomes now

hope abiding

Shining Sun

Sometimes, I rest downhearted

with life dreary, hardly started

sure the stresses cloud my mind

as I recall that once behind

There was love I thought was true and kind

but it wasn’t there to surely find

instead was use all misaligned

nothing real, his heart, there to find

My heart was used, came away bruised

remembering this, I feel the lose

should have walked with greater care

to find a lover good and fair, who truly cares

Then I met him, a true surprise

his comments of affection to slow arise

yet in their form, and words applied

bring me to see clear, with better eyes

The shining Sun from heart and eyes

which reach to me, and in arise

love in my heart to him apply

I am his to ever stand by

With love

Mix

I am afraid, it seems somehow

there is mix of pain and love till now

where one moment he seems close

then a way he turns, off he goes

My heart to swing from low to high

as wonder if his words a lie

then turns him my way again

I to laugh, as I grin

To feel his affection back again

I want this ever as stable win

Is he out, or is he in?

Can love come my way again?

His words to show what I have missed

the many frogs that I have kissed

to find this one heart, hit or miss

I want to know his living bliss

How I want him, stability in

our connection trusted then

our relationship strong, not thin

our heart bound together, packaged therein

And each to find their loving win

Introductions

I have mentioned her before

a friend I love and true adore

a confidant for life to share

someone important for whom I care

And I to introduce her to my man

see if she also becomes his fan

as I seek to cement future plans

as I share with her all I can

Of the life I have wished for

and want now even more

with Monique I share this score

her to judge, a making sure

That troubles are not where I should go

not the place she wants me to know

as broken heart in past I show

her to save me on the flow

He to be himself, his way

not pretend in any way

and Monique to find a friend

one she likes for me, good, pray then

They to share a message spare

between them, right then and there

assurances given that seem true fair

and my friend and I happy there

Monique and I agree in what we see

a man worthy, worthy to be

the fellow for future marriage

to live with in times carriage

Comforting Thoughts

With my friend judging well

this fellow I approach, hoped not fell

I feel more excited and quite well

in my choosing him as well

His image, his words, his kind ways

I revel in every word and phrase

as within his mind, I am need praise

for surviving troubles along my way

And I to accept his assurance

that life can be better, a mind confluence

ideas to match, new plans can hatch

from the joy he brings my heart

Here, in my mind, I find

his arms enwrapping mine

holding me quite close

his interest and caring shows

His manhood live, intriguing

brings me to thrive, exciting

as this comfort that he shares

is what I need, I swear

I’d give him every care

make love to him anywhere

a comforting thought I swear

I’ll cherish him then and there

Before we even touch

I’ve come to love him very much

in spite of risk-ed heart

I know loss would tear me apart

And his love to make my life

a joy, as his lovely, loving wife

to gain what I can while pleasing my man

amazing too, he is my friend

Appreciation

Grand the notions that we share

with the friends we have everywhere

though you are here, and I am there

we are a pair quite new and fair

Words and phrases that bring

each of our hearts to sing

our forms to dance and swing

as a kiss we’re in to lean

How do you express the smallest part

of how someone special affects your heart,

how your life-view is changed to new

as long held dream is coming true?

Know, my love, I am strong loving you

our words dance and sing, what they mean

clear as if a bell to ring

when you say, I love you too!

Appreciation is strong and fair

with you reaching out with care

as in my thoughts you stroke my hair

us close as can, a loving pair

Oh! When?

You ask, and I do not know

when it is you will come to, so

that we can touch, each other blush

move into the other’s arms

in vast and hurried rush

Oh! When shall this be

how soon will we see

the others face, no screen between

and our joy find speech into the world

our future life begin unfurl?

Our hearts to sing out loud

right in the middle of the crowd

our hands to touch, not quiet hush

to express our feelings lush

in their blooming

Of our Friend, Your Friend

I was thinking of you and Monique

you, with your friendship special, unique

sisters, not-sisters but ever to be

that acquaintance ever and ever to be

support where needful, ever given free

each for the other, strong, meant to be

I admire your closeness clear there to see

as close as water is to the tree

strong as Earth-stone ever to be

each able to give, and giving is free

I am admiring as is rare to see

comrades free and so able to be

Then, we come together in mind and heart

she’s the one to make stable the hearts

which through small troubles seemed tearing apart

until, as common ground between

she helps to restore us, mended channel to bring

returned to us, our hearts to sing

Unlike the enemy of wartime’s gold

where the enemy of my enemy is my friend

in our world there is better to lend

as your friend is my friend because she loves you

me touching your heart, she loves me too

this is something true bright and new

Me, Admiring

Helping Heart

In a rush to order a life

where I am trapped with unwilling wife

and unsure of whatever could be

you were there to help me see

Monique, friend of my soul-mate

you stand by her great

to help her find what is needed of late

a man worthy of her, you’re helping to sate

Her need and mine, through confusions innate

the situation our lives, sure on our plates

you to stand up and carry our freight

moving us forward right up to the gate

Our thanks is forever, you are helpful and great
