I tried to reproduce a poem, an ultimate love poem along the pattern created by Henry Lawson I hope it works. 


Secret Love Sublime by M.A.Meddings

You believed that I knew naught of love
When I said  that I truly loved you  
And the thoughts I had  were a fantasy 
Should this gentle heart prove true 
That I knew not what a  true love meant
Save  poetic words were thine
But my caring heart is yours for all 
And will be to the end of time



When I found you once in the Autumn rains
Your heart  he had  broken  then 
And  the love for him was a treasured thing
You had once found him again
Perhaps in me  my words were kind
So gentle and tender fine 
But they foundered there on a love so rare
That would  be to the end of time



Then in early spring at a seasons turn
a fire within me grew
The love I found got stronger then
As the words I spoke were true  
I could not win your heart again
Beautiful friendship yours and mine
But the secret love I had still burned
As it will to  the  end of time  

 

For I could not leave you and be content 
With an empty life and bare
For your friendship means the world to me
Companionship so rare 
Dont think  that I know naught of love
This secret love sublime 
Subdued serene in its tenderness 
True to the end of Time

a love like this...

this is an ultimate love. a woman's secret longing, that which transforms the universe, and leaves the planets in backward spin...

oh, one should be so lucky... to be loved with a love like this...

psst- the hero will always ride away on that white horse... the only question is whether the maiden shall watch him go or reach out and let him pull her to freedom's realm...

here's to your 'happily ever after' hero... you most definitely deserve it.

((((grabs you and kisses you)))) ;)))
