In the fire light he looks across the flickering flames Safe in the shadows he wore a smile priceless is the treasure he saw Oh you can say He is in awe Well who would not be Has another got the treasure I ask thee The boy he calls son The daughter like the mother Oh tis a beautiful sight That is a miracle to any one Close the eyes brother Praise the lord And bless the sight Distance is the angels That memory hold tight Mother lover best friend Oh tis none can replace Imagination of no end Days come and go Yet each morning you see her face Each night you know Her breath holds your heart Her tresses fall across your chest Her body is your other half Something you won’t hold in jest Because as the sun surely from slumber lift Words of a poet won’t salute The lords precious gift
After thought , Treasure her love her devotion Respect her mind body and soul You a mere male Have no words of the notion As you read my tale The blessing of fate The wonder of gods goal When she walks at your side For that is your shadow The dignity that won’t pale Thank you for reading my words Because reality is her dignity and respect is the blessing we mere males can only repay The mother of our children The friend who shares The worldly path we travel q

About this poem:
I am but a poet a horseman and recorder of life and reality I have seen my mother and father battle life’s journeys Tis lore and harmony that I write about the true meaning of what is seen this poem is about the thoughts of a mere male who believes that there is two in life not one The heart is one the soul is one yet together two bodies are one thank you for reading my works
