With respect, I believe that when a poem has been represented here the author should be quoted. In this case, Wolf, the author of your poem is John Paul Moore.
I should remind all that my poems are copyright, and should not be reproduced without my approval. I say this because I will soon be having them, and many more, printed in Coffee Table book form.
Since my link to poetry appears to have ben locked, here is my latest:
Untitled Ode Each dawning day do I try to comprehend
The magic that, with unreserved love, you send.
How would I survive without you at my side?
Not once have you, my love, denied -
And if I should ever spurn, instead
I’d kiss each tear- a pearl upon a silver thread
And if in haste I misjudge your intention
I will rue a thousand years, for my abstention.
I beg of you, do not judge me to be unkind
If, when we speak, I allow my absent mind
To wander from the words you express;
It is your beauty that I cannot suppress,
And which occupies my each individual thought.
It is your mystifying spell which you have brought
That hypnotizes me with every move you make.
It is your very presence which prompts my heart to ache.
