For Sharon

Accidental Poet



 

For Sharon

My first and last love

The one lady in my heart

I often speak of

 

Poems I’ve penned for her

May seem repetitious

But this I promise

My words for her not fictitious

 

Of me, one might ask

Why I love someone I can’t hold

To which I reply

It’s not about owning the gold

 

I’m the one who saw her smile

And I’m the one who felt the pull

The magnet pull on my young heart

An empty heart she changed to full

 

Love is a precious gift

Whether love is two way or not

I couldn’t allow myself

To lose this gift I got

 

If I’ve loved but once in my life

Then that once is all I ask of

For life’s greatest joy

Is to know the feeling of love

 

For the love that lives inside me

For Sharon

Has made me a very happy man

A wealthy in love baron

        A heartful of love that has lasted this long must go on forever my friend - there is a saying that I believe - - "love cannot die for it is part of the permanent" - I have always kept that comfort close to my core.

        • Accidental Poet

          And now part of my core. Thank you Fay. 😉

            Dear Sharon, wherever you are, do you know that on this planet, there is a man, his heart only beats for you and for you only.

                And she has known since she left town in 1971 because I left a letter in her school locker. But... she probably thinks I've forgotten all about her now 50 years later. Never happen, 😉
