'Like Noah And Allie' Poem by Whitney Nicole Albright*

I want a love like Allie and Noah knew.
Dance through life, dance in the street with you.
Ride a Ferris wheel off the ground.
Let you chase me all over town.
Hear you tell me the sweetest lines.
Even though I wouldn’t believe you half the time.
Take off in summer and jump in the creek.
Find a love that’s so unique.
Think of you when my head hits the pillows.
Ride bikes with you under the willows.
Tell me you know things will be all right.
And read Walt Whitman to me every night.
Run and jump in your arms to feel your embrace.
Lick vanilla ice cream off of your face.
Let me leave you in a big trance.
Know our love’s not just a summer romance.
Play my piano for you in the dark.
Give you every little piece of my heart.
Rest my head on your white t-shirt.
Love you like I’m not afraid to be hurt.
Write me 365 letters a year.
Write me truly, write me sincere.
And no matter how far away you seem.
I’ll always come to you in your dreams.
Take a canoe ride that looks surreal.
Make me hurt and make me heal.
Let’s have feelings we can’t explain.
Kiss me madly in the pouring down rain.
Make love to me as your first and last.
Watch our lives fly by fast.
We’ll love each other every hour.
I’ll give you pancakes, you’ll give me flowers.
Build me a house and paint it white.
Tuck me in oh, so tight.
Read to me when I’m too old to remember,
Every detail from January to December.
Live each day like a movie scene.
When we’re seventy let’s still be seventeen.
Remember our days in my old blue dress,
And you in your jeans, weren’t we blessed?
Think of our days in that old pickup truck,
Or down at the river by those old white ducks.
Lay our heads down on the bed,
Softly kiss me on my head.
Sit back and remember our ride,
Of how I became your lovely bride.
Feel so chilled as I’m teary eyed,
As I pass away by your side.
To know life isn’t a big finale,
I want a love like Noah and Allie.
