EXCHANGE OF HEARTS
©2009 Robert Burnham
[for someone yet to come...]
Do I know you?
Not yet, but I will
We will walk through a park
Hand in Hand
Listen to the minstrel and
Laugh
At the ducks
While you feed them
We will become writers
Together, writing
Silly love songs, perfected
Prose
And Poems
We may even find
Our own
Novel among our words
You will rest in my arms
Your head
Nestled in my lap
Under a weeping willow
Biting, seductively on a
Grape
In that moment you will capture my heart
The sunset we watch
Will remind me
Of your effervescent
Beauty
Our eyes will meet
You'll see deep within me
In that moment I will capture your heart

So sweet!!!
Your heart shines in this poem! You are such a sincere romantic!
How romantic, the pictures are beautiful.
lovely poem, loved the pics.
That sunset should do it.
This is beautiful, Robert...and so romantic.
ahhh that was lovely....
There is such longing hidden among your words. Beautiful, Robert! Thanks for sharing with READING BOOKS ONLINE!
LOL Folks: The 'Sunset' is a fake. If you look at the geomap it was shot on the east coast. It's really a 'Sunrise'. Poetic License!
nice poem & pictures!
Well, sunrise or sunset, the pictures are lovely and romantic. They are the perfect kind of places to share with your soul mate. Beautiful love poem!
words capture mind and pictures capture heart

Hey, I realy dig this. I miss feeding the ducks in Walla Walla, they do not allow it anymore. I love your oceamn photo, it reminds me of a poem I did long ago. Peace:)
Love you dear heart Robert,,, your day is near,,, God Bless you,,,
This one is great, too. I love the pictures as well.
I hope you find your writer Robert!
Me too Norene, me too. What I'm finding is that some of the ladies who are out there are worried they're not good enough for another relationship. And it's usually a not-too-bright MAN in their past that made them feel this way. But that's just a guess. I know I want a woman but I also know I've never been able to figure them out.
Now, with this response, I'm probably in a lot of trouble.....
So beautiful thanks for the poem, i loved it
beautiful, Robert.....
You can just probably forget about figuring women out.. LOL, men are such simple creatures, women are complex, but, all they really want is to be happy, some have difficulty thinking that anyone could make them happy, or, some have difficulty thinking and wondering if someone is worth the trouble, you know, all kinds of thoughts make women what they are....
You will be ok! LOL, women 101, you will have to go to the next class though
Barb, sharing secrets of the sisterhood - you may have to watcvh your back.
About that next class? Y'know I've already enrolled. Just waiting for Kentucky U to open her doors. lol xoxoxoxo
And believe it or not, Barb, ladies: love can be simple.
you reveal a beautiful heart~
