Stand beside the sea
where we watched the fishes swim
and I’ll meet you there again
by and by
 
Scramble on a boulder
gazing far across the mist
and I’ll sit with you
beneath the pewter sky
 
Stretch upon a meadow
counting daisies in the grass
I’ll be dreaming
at the corner of your eye
 
Settle by a river
in the afternoon sun
and I’ll stay with you
until our tears dry
 
Loiter at a table
on the corner of a square
and I’ll join you there
to watch the hours fly
 
Hold me in your heart
through the long and lonely night
and I’ll hold you in my arms
by and by

love the gentle rhythm in this parson - almost like a lullaby

Thank you insert. I'm really glad you like it. I'm not sure if it's a stanza short of a full cycle. I was working on another, but had to dash into a class.

Decisions, decisions. If i add one to achieve rhythm, will it break something else?

Thank you for the cherries eds.

It is a lot like a lullaby. It's beautiful.

The beat of your heart is the mellifluent rhythm to my soul.

Thank you AE. The irony is that I wrote it during the night because I couldn't sleep.
