I remember... Hair like rapids on a quiet stream, Eyes like tranquil pools, so deep I could not see, You, were a poem of a storm upon a quiet breeze, Yet, your presence only gently rustled the leaves, Through boat wires you sang your song, As if to another place you might belong, Your voice so low, with every wave upon the shore, Not heard, yet strangely felt to my core, You are here?......I know you are! forever like the twinkling of a star, You could not leave any more than I, As sure as blue follows the night sky. You will wait for me, I know you will, And I.... Will always be here for you still.

Your poem broughtto my mind the Song "Till" by Tony Bennet.Liked this poem Andrew.
Hi, andrew149, The juxtaposition of images of the quiet and the storm is compelling. Your voice so low, with every wave upon the shore, Not heard, yet strangely felt to my core...
