Overnight To and Fro
I liked falling to sleep with you
In the swing, inside our "screamed-in-porch"...
Swaying, slowly back and forth...
In our pillowed, bentwood bed...
Hearing the crickets and tree frogs and wise old owls
Serenade to our nodding heads
With the ceiling fan humming gently above
Cooling our lolling stead...
.............................................................................
I liked waking with you
At the break of our dawn
On the porch where you silenced my screams...
Still swaying, slowly to and fro...
Hearing the birds and the bees and seeing the purple glories
Rise even before the sun...
You kissed me good morning on my dew-drop lips
And then we shared breakfast in bed...

This is lovely~
Why does this seem familiar to me Dottie? Is it the "screamed-in-porch" line?
I like it, it's good! It just seems familiar.
Peace.

Hello friend...hope all is well in your world

..such a warm visual picture I get from this poem......
pardon my off-topic question, but where in North Carolina are you located? I am originally from Asheville, and I was just in NC for about ten days. I have family that lives all up and down the appalachains there. Small world

Now this is sweet. It reminds me of those gentle moments in the beginning of love.
ummm!!! So you can hear nature sounds? What a beautiful place to be in. How sweet? Beautiful expression and words. Enjoy my friend, enjoy!
Very sensual.
Beautiful ...... reading your words, seeing the variety that comes from your soul, now makes me truly wonder what you saw when you read mine......and once again thank you for taking time to do so.
