' One Fine Day Poem by Linda Ori

' One Fine Day

Rating: 3.1


We'll be together one fine day
Though life has turned our hair to gray
And we've missed the tender touch of youth
But not the warm embrace of truth;

The course was set before we knew
That you were me, and I was you,
And though our paths took different turns
The passion deep within us burns;

Like fleeting memories yet unknown,
A beacon shines that draws us home
To all that's real when there is doubt,
To remind us what life's all about;

Though passion blossoms when we're young,
The sweetest songs remain unsung
Until we find that perfect sound -
When the missing note is finally found;

Shall we complete this symphony,
This timeless tale of you and me,
Don't let the music fade away -
We'll be together one fine day.

It reminds me of John Keats' lines 'Heard melodies are sweet/ but unheard melodies are sweeter! ' Nice poem!

You know, Midnight, it only took me 3 1/2 years to conclude it....but you DO have a natural penchant for: ''Picture Perfect'' Metre/Rhythm, my dear Midnight.... as so displayed above. You have heard of course the tune from The Beatles famed Sgt. Peppers album, ''Lovely Rita'', that goes, ''Lovely Rita, meter maid, sing us a song about ya'....'' Wellllll, say hello, to yet another title? alias/aka, FjR developed, of course... Midnight Metre M(ade) Magnificent! FjR

Very nicely expressed. Though passion blossoms when we're young, The sweetest songs remain unsung Until we find that perfect sound - When the missing note is finally found; Shall we complete this symphony A very nice way to look at life. Ben
