I will be king of the flowery paths,
I will walk with you among the gardenias,
We’ll be barefoot among fragrant fields,
We’ll unclothe ourselves like ancient gods and goddesses,
We’ll kiss body parts that tremble with delight,
Once again we will have innocent eyes
Perpetually seeing love.
Our memories transcend these limited days
Of our current stay,
We are connected to the eternal lovers
From every distant age,
We’ve groped each other in wine vineyards
That served Caesars,
We’ve made love amid the chaos of war
From Alexander to Napoleon,
We were made for this desire
That neither water nor raging fire
Could ever extinguish or expire.
i thought it was ok until this part: We were made for this desire That neither water nor raging fire Could ever extinguish or expire. .......one of the greatest stanzas ive ever read....
Uriah, I love this. that first line is great! The whole this is what any woman wants to hear. Loved it!
either that...or he's just in heat :)) Loved the groping in vineyards line in this one, Uriah...very much the climax of the poem for me :)
