Mississippi Nights Poem by minette irsay

Mississippi Nights

Rating: 2.8


We talk until the wee hours
Under the Mississippi moon
Dreams of futures to come
Talk of times gone by

We finally give in to sleep
Only to make love at dawn
Waking in each others arms
Such is Mississippi love

We touch and laugh
Kisses by the thousand
Sighs of rising passion
Wonder at the night sounds

Evenings dancing in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico
Laughing at the tiny crab scramble
Gathering shells to make a wish
Giving back to the sea what is hers

In the morning he brings me hot coffee
Lights my cigarette with care
Then looks into my eyes
Says I can't believe you're here

Morning brings a new day
Coffee and kisses the start
Plans for the life we are making
Nothing but love and sunshine

Tears shed for the years lost
Laughter for the times to come
Plans and schemes for stolen moments
Love in the heat of the afternoon

Such is Mississippi love!
