Poetry: If I Could
If I could live each day to tell
of my love and of her spell
that which puts me in a trance
when arm and arm we slowly dance.
Within those lovely eyes I fade
I drift into the world she made
the one that makes me want her so
as we dance so light and slow.
And as her scent so sweet goes by
I can’t but help and wonder why
wonder long and hope to find
why she remains within my mind.
If I could live each day to speak
how daily for her love I seek
and dally forth with loving dreams
then they are real or so it seems.
This was lovely!
Thank you very much, I appreciate your kindness. I like your gravatar, it’s bright
Your welcome
If you could….but you can’t …you said it….its her world….you are her….not sure….friend or lover? Like the sweet rhyming and trapped feeling.
Thank you, I love your ability to understand my hidden meanings many take my poems at face vslue, missing the musings hidden within quite a few
it was my pleasure but as I always say as creator you have owner’s rights to refute or like what we mere readers have to say. I love hidden meanings, maybe I look for it even when its not there just to make life more complicated for me, but that to me is the beauty of words, winding and spinning a tale imagined before it hit the paper. and this was one of them , sweet but running deep. I just discovered you through a mutual friend and am just going trough your archives, you may start getting a little annoyed – just ignore me , i love to ramble, nice to read you ROB! enjoying the way you think and how you arrange the words.
No, it’s so refreshing to get real reads on my work, I could never get sick of you? Who is our mutual friend if you don’t mind my asking?
sailorpoet – he’s new to blogging like I am 100 years at this but new as in trying to get started – I was happy to always help a friend out. he said on a reblog he was your new fan boy and busybody me had to go see – so here I am! Nice to read you again ROB!
Yes, thank you so much, though fanboy is a bit unsettling lol
LOL – its a compliment – take it
Oh, I thought it might mean something off the beAten path. Thank you for clarifying heh heh
Hahaha – naughty!
Nooo, naughty only applies to me and the female species…though to each his own
i’am just 14. don’t have knowledge of judging. but can say you are extremely fabulous
Thank you very much. You can judge I’d you read something and it makes you feel a certain way! So nice to see you start writing so young
Once again, love it 🙂
Thank You so much!
Lovely rhyme. You were born a poet. Poetry runs in your veins. Everything else is secondary.
Thank you Yasmine! You’re the best
You are welcome Robbie.
😉
I agree. Well said!
Thanks
Love-ly poem 😊
Thank you!
Truly a lovely poem, Rob!
Thank you!
I can’t write like that 😂 haha
Sure you can. Just count the syllables in each line and make them the same, or vary it. Then rhyme two lines at a time or every other. So line one 7 syllables, like two 7 or 8, then repeat. At the end of each line rhyme, or rhyme every other. There you have it. If each line has mismatched syllables it’s not going to flow. Unless of course you’re doing free verze, and then anything goes!
Yeah, I know about syllables (eh, I’m the teacher of literature lol)…but hey, I hate them. I never count. Only if I REALLY…REALLY #MUST 😂😂 free 🌪style is d way for my soul ✌️😛🤗
I taught hs English! Sorry, I can’t help myself sometimes lol
Romantic 😉 well written 👍 like it ❤️👏
Thanks very much, I’m glad you did
