Take me there

by Morgan   Jan 30, 2008


Sitting here in nature
Sitting in the dark
Out of the sun's view
Sitting in the park

Under the tree of life
Which you have grown in me
The seed has grown eternal
Inside this earthly me

I dance in all the laughter
As it begins to rain
And, oh , the joy you've brung me
has overwashed the pain

I gaze into your eyes with my mouth agape
As I can feel your dreams & can start to shape
Them from the heart I see in your long lost stare
But I have found you love. Will you take me there?

For you've failed to see the dream
That stands in front of you
And concentrate instead
On the earthly dreamless view

(just a note- I used the word brung instead of brought as a kind of poetic license. That joy is something beyond what you can bring somebody and there's no real word to express it. Thank you for commenting though.)

    Morgan,

    Such poetic words...this was the stanza I loved best:)
    Btw..I think it is creative to invent a new word, lol.
    Keep writing!

    I never have been one for love poetry as it is so difficult for me to read through the filler words that so many poets use with the cliche style. You have surpassed that and intrigued me to read more love poetry. I enjoyed the style and hope to read more from you.
    Thank You for sharing,
