Arlene Faith Kortright Poems

Oh, phantom lover in the dead of night
You gaze at me with those bedroom eyes
Your fever melts into my skin
And wakes my sleeping heart again
...

I got out your picture today
The one I keep hidden away
Once more I smile through the tears
Has it been that many years, dear?
...

He sees her around
All by herself
His heart starts to pound
He's under her spell
...

Far away friend
Tonight as you hold her again
Do I cross your mind
Do you go back in time now and then
...

We're like dandelion seeds floating on the air
Like tiny ballerina's everywhere
Dancing to the Summer's Song
Never caring where we may belong
...
