Poem for my soldier
Please read the amazing poetry by the amazing writer.
decades three times gone by with tides descent
silvers sliver
mark liquid light upon her skin so white
the warriors sword cuts gold the blues deep sleep
a memory weeping
nocturnals curse a fragile stain
at choirs of gulls positioning
Shakespeare’s lover listening
I love you her breath glistening
there it is he said , there it is .
her body multiplied
mirrors of eternity that wouldn’t die
began that summer in the Falklands burning
the footlocker laying still , laying long
metals looking from the wall
the soldier and his conquest quickening
pictures of her there inside unfolding in their christening
anywhere with you , anywhere with you
I love you her breath glistening
there it is he said , there it is .
How kind and generous of you John , I am honored to be here , thank you so much ….love , megxxx

I was a soldier for 15 years. Was more good days than bad. I liked the honest story told in the words and you are welcome. I like the lake too. I’m 8 miles from Lake St. Clair. I like the peace of being near the lakes and I love the sea.
