My Distance Maid Poem by John G. Nelson

I endlessly dreamed, heart never bar
Caring & pleasing, so much love to give
Craving a stranger, it deepens my dive.
O love, love has set its yoke upon me.

Let me woo you my love, night & day
Taking my heart to a distance planet
Giving my heart in exchange for love
Lay bare my heart & treasure for you

Come again, I’ll fall in love over & over
whilst my heart find comfort loving you.
I’d wonder, if love & grace I shall learn
Sharing my deepest feeling bury below.

Quarrel or broil, my heart has not quit,
Every word seem pretty, you lay a spell
& my heart has drunk your water & win
My visions, you’re my distance maid
