Soldiers Letter Home Poem by Sophonie Asia Joseph

Soldiers letter home

'Oh my love the days are long and the nights are longer
but in your arms I will be soon no longer hunger
will cause me unspeakable pain
that only your lovely nature can tame
how I long to whisper in you ears
and kiss away your childlike fears
make love to you till dawn
from the house to the lawn
my one and only dear
how I badly wish you were here
your smile engraved in my mind
your last words so gentle so kind
your fragrance haunts me every where
into battle, on the ship, even there
cannot wait till I come home
then you will be of my flesh and my bone
my dear angel tell me it is true
that you miss me as bad a I do you

Many thanks
