Daniel - A Poem

 

DANIEL

(in the style of Poe’s “Eulalie”)

I lived unhappily

In a land of misery

And my days were lonely and cold,

Until the warm and shining Daniel

came unto my soul

Until the smiling, beguiling Daniel

came and took control.

His eyes are as bright

As the moonlight at night

And as blue as the Caribbean Sea,

And never before

Have I felt so adored

(and so happy)

As when those blue eyes looked at me

As when those beautiful blue eyes

looked longingly at me.

Now sorrow and pain

Disappear with the rain

For I have found the love I had missed,

And the feeling that will never perish

The feeling I’ll always cherish

(and I promise this)

Is the excitement in his sweet kiss

Is the fiery excitement in his tender kiss.
