Borrowed Words Poem by GREENWOLFE 1962
Borrowed Words
I'm waiting here for someone.
Just who, I couldn't say.
She's bringing my contentment.
True love, I guess, someday.
I may just wait forever.
Again, this one last time.
It's then, I shall endeavor
To put our love in rhyme.
By then, if I've forgotten
Expressions lovers say;
I thought that I'd just borrow
From those I wrote today.
That's why I don't mind waiting.
I've got more time you see,
To think of things more charming
To say when love's with me.
It's then, when I'm contented
And know not what to say.
I'll be so glad I waited
And wrote of love this day.
So let me write my love words
To one I do not know.
Though someday, they'll be borrowed,
These words wrote long ago.

Your belief in what is good, true and beautiful becomes you. Very appealing write. As always, Sandra
Fantastic. Your poetry is conversational and I liked it. The last stanza was my favourite. I look forward to reading more.
The achievement of your goal is assured the moment you commit yourself to it. A very optimistic poem deifiying the true meaning of adoration.....
