AWAKEN

Come on love

Please wake up

It`s the start of spring!

You know how you love to hear the birds sing!

Oh but come on love!

Please open your eyes

You know you`re my precious little butterfly.

Please don`t leave me

Lord please let this be untrue

I can`t bear to think of life without you!

Come on love

Wake up there`s so much we haven`t done!

You know how you love to see the setting sun.

We`ve never walked by a clifftop high!

Oh please love don`t let that be your very last sigh.

Come on love, there`s so much more we could do together

We could see your poppies shine in the sun.

Or go for rambles in all kinds of weather

Come on love, please! this is breaking me in two.

I don`t want to go home if I have to without you.

Come on love let`s go for a dance

You know you always enjoy a little romance!

Come on love, there are words that I so regret

I`m sorry for them!

Lord please don`t let my little butterfly be dead!

Please just be sleeping

On your sweet lips I can see a smile.

I`ll just lay here and cuddle you for a while!

Let me get you a rug

Your feeling a bit cold today!

So I`ll just lay here to keep the chill away.

Oh no, please let me stay sir!

I just want to hold her close

I know this is my last chance

I know her time has come!

Please sir! she is so my precious one!

I know I`ll have to let her go

She has a long journey without me to start!

Please Lord look after my little butterfly!

Now I don`t know what to do

Losing her has broken my heart!

Now the only thing I have to hold close to me

Is her little gold wedding band

That she wore so gracefully.

G xx

Georgina this is very powerful, great phrasing and the beat is rock solid with your use of repetition, dramatic shift in the tone near the middle, from whimsical it moves to longing, very emotional, it took me....beautiful poetry

WOW!! Christopher that was so kind of you to say that, thank you honey, I`m pleased that you got the meaning in the poem, the English local dialect is confusing to others. I pictured an old man saying goodbye to his dying wife, sad but loving. Thank you for reading my work. G xx
