Monica Three

a poem by Timothious Clayton Smith

 

You look at me with love struck eyes.

I don't know how to take it a first.

It's been so long since this warrior has been loved.

I know I love you but...

You kiss my hands gently.

I now I love you but...

You look deep into my eyes.

I look back.

Ah, what dreams I see in them.

They sweep me away into adventures once met.

I find myself upon my heroic steed.

My sword upon my side.

My armor gleemed for parade.

Over looking a beautiful ocean with incoming tide.

A journey met at the coming of dawn.

An adventure upon my foot falls.

An army at my command.

Banners that last deck the halls.

To a distance kingdom I come.

A parchment close to my heart.

A note from you and promise of safe passage.

I come to take hand and to begin anew a start.

I march my army into your land.

Yours lets my pass by unharmed.

I ride up to the gates of the land.

I see the fields and the land farmed.

Your escort meets me there.

They take me to the castle door.

I see you in all your beauty and pagent.

Now I remember! I loved you before!

We break our classic stare.

You kiss my hands again.

I know I love you.

I always have.
