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

Hi Georgie!!.......I miss you.......hope you got my message to you...........I love the way you used repetition in this write to help create the lovely flow here..........and the Butterfly such a perfect symbolic representation for change and rebirth.........I Love everything about this write............well done girlfriend..........smiles........Beasty!! xo
Thank you handsome, that was a lovely compliment, I feel quite flattered that such a talented writer likes my work, WOW!! I love you Beasty Boy. 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
