a love poem to Ethel by Thomas Davis
I love the woman whom I love,
And in the morning’s world of blue
I wake to bellow hearty songs
That say so simply, “I love you.”
Love is the light of human black.
The tone that brings man up to gray,
And though the world is lost and doomed,
I say it makes today a day.
So, blacken out the joyous sun
And ink away the solemn moon.
I love woman whom I love.
She’ll lighten up a tar-black room.
What a lovely poem 🙂
A beautiful poem to someone who is very much loved from someone who loves her very much! 🙂
Hope you are doing well Tom.
That last line is beautiful, great poem!
Splendid!
Truly beautiful.
Love it Dad!
Wonderful!
Lovely – I can hear this put to music (like a Leonard
Cohen song). Your love poetry is always so tender and beautiful!
