An
ocean away,
You
come to say,
That
you love me,
In
many ways,
The
aroma of my
perfume,
The
Celeste touch
of my skin,
My
raven hair,
And
rosy red lips,
You
say you
yearn for my love,
Every
single second of the day.

*How was that poem
you read in the meadow
There as the sun shone
so warm on your skin

About a man and
a beautiful princess
And how her heart
he was trying to win

Slaying a dragon with
fire breath breathing
Saving her life with
a sword and with style

Bringing her jewels and
a rose from the garden
Whatever it took so
he could see her smile

She took his hand and
then thanked him so sweetly
Said that she needed not
flowers and stones

All she desired was a
man who would love her
Stand by her side,
never leave her alone

I am that man, said this
commoner kneeling
I will be faithful each
day of your life

Beautiful princess, you'd
make me so happy
If you would say yes
to being my wife

Needless to say there was
joy in the kingdom
Love was in bloom
as their life did begin

But did you know in this
poem you're reading
You were the princess
and well, I was him

And they lived happily ever. . . . . .

Nature has shed her dress
Of verdant summer greens
Replaced by a gown of golden red
But all to soon that gown will fall and fade
To reveal nature as a glorious ****
Standing stately in the cold
