Array ( [sid] => 26894 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A visitor [time] => 2003-11-11 20:13:14 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I sat beneath a willow tree
Sun streaming through to my face
A warm and comforting summer breeze
I feel as though this is my place

All is quiet, merely sounds of the wild
Cool feeling of the grass beneath my hand
Remember times of a once happy child
I remember all the things I'd planned

The sun makes me slightly weary
I lay my head against the nourished bark
Why I was still alone, was my quiry
But I didn't so much mind staying in the dark

I closed my book with a sigh
Forgetting to mark my place
I didn't matter much, It'd be alright
other things in my mind were there to erase

I about fall asleep when I hear footsteps slowing
I open my eyes to see
A figure- with a gift bestowing
for you were coming to visit me

I didn't know if your reason was good
So a mere grin did cross o'er my face
But when I could see your cheerfu mood
A bright smile did take its place

I was about to stand to greet you
but you sat down with me instead
you were first to speak to me too
and into a long conversation led

We talked for what seemed mere moment in time
But truth be told t'was hours
I guess when the way time spent is sublime
The faster it seems to devour.

The sun over the horizon has disappeared
Stars dotting the darkening sky
We promise to again meet right here
And we hesitantly say good-bye [comments] => 4 [counter] => 197 [topic] => 31 [informant] => katzie [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )
