The Nearness Of You.
by Patrick Talty (Age: 84)
copyright 07-11-2002


Age Rating: 13 to 127

 
Dedication:
To my wife, Xiao Yan.


Always near, ever close by
In the warm embrace of summer morning,
Often without a hint or warning,
You are the glow of sunrise sky.

A walk in the garden, mind in reflection
Your face appears when my glance goes
To radiance of a blushing rose:
Dainty, delectable, complete perfection.


The splendid sun king broadcasts while
Showering sunbeams born of fire;
Songbirds' roundelays in choir
Ignite me like your amorous smile.

End of day; and right on cue,
Come purple sounds: glowing reprise
Of love song in exciting keys;
Life swings with the nearness of you.

© 2003 Patrick Talty
