The Good Wife Poem by Spanner Thegob
The Good Wife
There is kindness in your smile,
A promise of things to come
A hint of 'in a while
We will dance to a different drum'
Keep the faith my love, keep the faith.
There is mystery in those eyes
As they dance and shine with mischief,
A hint of ecstasy and surprise
A delicious question of 'what if! '
Keep the faith my love, keep the faith.
There is softness in your touch
As you wipe away those tears,
Sadness because you loved too much,
Were faithful all the years.
Keep the faith my love, keep the faith.
There is patience in those redundant lips,
anguish in your fragmented heart,
Lips, long to be loved and kissed,
Heart, unprepared to being apart.
Keep the faith my love, keep the faith
And you shall have your hearts desire
When your life has been eclipsed
You will join me on the pyre!
You and I shall keep our tryst!
I read Spanner's poem twice (at least) before deciding on ***** (5) stars. I'm thinking: 'the speaker is speaking, AFTER his death, to his bereaved*** wife (the 'Good' one) . [continued]
PYRE: 'also known as a funeral pyre, is a structure, usually made of wood, for burning a body as part of a funeral rite or execution. As a form of cremation, a body is placed upon or under the pyre, which is then set on fire.'
Gee, there is NOTHING I'd like better than to be 'reunited' with 'my love' on a pyre aka 'funeral pyre'. DON'T light a match, Dear. : )
