The Rose of Sharon
She put the WOW!
On my lips
The awe on my face
My heart in eclipse
Nearly fifty-seven years
Still, she rules my heart
Fifty-three years I’ve not seen her
My love for her matured from the start
A woman of grace
She’d be today
A mirror rarely blessed
To reflect her that way
Just a walk in the park for her
Same as while a young girl
The day she stole my heart
The prettiest in the world
Like a collage all over my heart
Her face and name of Sharon
Her smile of my inner fire
Showing my pride to share on
In all my life
Only she reached so deep
My heart’s core she owns
For eternity she’ll keep
And to my grave I’ll go
A contented old man
For having loved her so long
The very best that I can

I could think of much worse things that one could take to ones grave dearest A.P although you know I will say this, just because I'm a lady and I love the bones of you, I wish in my lifetime, you would be able to meet this beautiful face once more. who knows if she too has harboured these thoughts throughout her life. Ah the mere thought. 🤗 💙 🌹
From every bone in my body, thank you Teddy. For Sharon to have harbored these thoughts for me has been a life long dream for me, but just that she remembers me with a warm smile would make me the happiest man on the planet. Yes Teddy, the mere thought of it. 😊🌹
A poem not about KP and I. lol.
Sorry Orchi, this one's between Sharon and I. But you can pen one for KP if you like. 😁
A fine write, AP.
Thanks Tom, glad you like it. 😊
I am so moved by the love you share in your words for the one who has remained carved on your heart for so long. I hope sincerely you meet her again AP. Have a beautiful weekend dear poet.
Thanks Cassie. Although I know it's not likely, I'm always open to the idea that she could suddenly appear in my life again. Either way, she'll always be #1. 😁👍
