YOU SPEAK TO ME - A POEM

 By Donovan Baldwin


Even without words,

You speak to me.,,


Of quiet walks

On moonlit shores,

Love songs softly played,

On old guitars,


Of candles fluttering 

In an evening breeze,

As gossamer curtains

Dance to the same

Unheard music...


Of stories laughed at,

Lies disbelieved with

A smile and upraised eyebrow

And, quiet, special looks,

In private pauses...


Of fingers touching 

Across an old table,

Marked with years, 

And promises of more,

For those sharing there...


Of wishes, dreams, desires,

Granted and still in

The hands of Fate,

And, silent prayers,

For their fulfillment...


Of times gone by,

And yet to come,

History not yet made,

But, with luck,

The finest moments,

Of them all...


Of all this and more...


Even without words,

You speak to me.
