Poem #08
'Warm Anticipation’
There’s a chill that subtly strokes my face
Wakes me, just before the dawn
And it lets me know, I am in the place
Where great love is spawned
I have no idea, as to why it should be
Nor why its presence, is so sworn
But I’ve always felt you come to me
Before the sunrise, so forlorn
And you fill my soul with such warm anticipation
Yet when you leave, my heart is torn...
