Someday

Nicholas Browning

Somewhere, a girl waves her hand

Through canary blades of grass,

Her ivory frame enthralls them all,

While they bid her smile to last.

 

Diamond rain shines through the sun

As she catches a few that fell,

While grinning away by spires of jade

The fabric of her world unravels.

 

Hinged on every breath she takes,

All the quips in her operatic steps,

Every turn of the hip and nod of glee

I'm not likely to forget.

 

Someday on that golden isle

I hope to see you there again,

Maybe then we could say "I missed you",

Maybe then we can say we've met.

          Ahhhh beautiful yearning.... take heart. My brother when he was 6 saw a picture of a beautiful woman in the supermarket and said I'm going to marry a girl just like that - and he did! Almost thee spitting image! So who knows!

            Well I've seen her before but I have no idea what she looks like so I dunno lol.
            She takes many forms.

            your talent
            for beautifully acute imagery, is inspirational..
            such a majestic hymn of a poem
            may the right: she
            find you soon, dear Poet

            • Nicholas Browning

              All I can hope for is that she gives me a chance. Thank you very much L.B. You're too kind.
