Just One Day with You : Love Poetry

written by Poet : Jeff Pelsang


JUST ONE DAY WITH YOU

=====================

I could be mad that all I have is one day,

I could be greedy but wind up having the one day taken away,

Instead I have to feel blessed by the moment thats shared,

Since its just one day I have to do things to show you how much I care,

Sex is out of the question it would have to be deeper and true,

It would have to be unselfish and giving with laughter and smiles to,

From the break of dawn to see the sunrise crack the dark of night,

Together having a quiet moment warmed by a blanket as eyes catch the light,

Nothing taken for granted, not even the cool fresh morning wind,

A chill enjoyed by a light flow as it leaves behind our shivering skin,

A frosty breathe a smoke like cloud that fills the air,

Words whispered our gently exhaled as we catch each other in a loving stare,

If only for a moment, One moment, this moment which belongs to you and I,

A moment carried for forever as forever will soon seem to pass on by,

But we will recall this day and play it through our minds,

And though I cant see you after today Ill keep you for all time,

With the sunrise finally pushing the dark skies away,

We both get up from mother natures show and continue on our day,

A picnic in the park with a basket filled with tasty delights,

A bottle of red wine kept cool as it sits in a nest of cubes of ice,

A plaid blanket of red, black, and striped gold,

Spread over the ground as we unfold the folds,

Cheese and crackers dressed out on a plate,

Underneath the large oak tree whose in a constant motionless state,

On a hill top away from the city lifes constant noise,

Peace and tranquility soon to be shared and enjoyed,

A toast of two glasses with a clank or a cling,

A meaningful sound that echoes with a musical ring,

Cheers for this day and cheers for the memory earned,

A toast that will last forever but will both leave us to yearn,

Yearn for another day and another moment of two,

Two who will continue on as this day has had its due,

After our pallets have tasted the crackers and wine,

We lay together looking at the clouds searching for a sign,

Looking for a meaning in this day,

In a day of pure happiness with no words needed to say,

The sky as blue as a distant island's waters fills our view,

Clouds chasing after other clouds in a slow pursuit,

Shapes pointed out that look like rabbits and hot air balloons,

A frog, then a rose, then we laugh at the ruthless moon,

In tries to stay up all through the day,

Almost hidden but still fighting hard to be seen and to stay,

Hours which feel like minutes keep us in true glee,

All senses awake we both feel alive and free,

Well the afternoons almost gone so we pack up to leave,

A day that people rarely enjoy has become one that we have both easily recieved,

The ride up to the mountains is quiet with gazing eyes and smiles that we pass to each other,

Both wanting tomorrow to be like to day and hearts praying for another,

Only one Day, thats all, so we look towards the sunset together,

Youve uplifted me and left me feeling as light as a feather,

Ahh the mountain was a steep climb but the top is almost near,

A wonderious day that granted us pleasures without mother natures tears,

Shadows nestle in the hills as the sun lays its weary head down,

We sit and enjoy the heavens magnificent colors as they move to the skies leaving the ground,

Red, orange, yellow with a pastel pasted pink,

Almost burning with emotion the sun bows down behind the horizon with a wink,

Now magical the twinkling stars hit the black once empty skies,

Filling up the emptiness with the twinkling wishes that reflect right off our eyes,

Like kids in a candy store we look on in awe with a need to touch,

or maybe to be touched as we both feel the rush,

Nestled close to me, we end the day just like it had begun,

Not about sex, not about business, only about togetherness and for once being loved and needed and to feel like number one,

So when the cancer that grows within takes you from future days,

We both will have this memory, unforgettable and easily remembered and replayed,

This poem was created with the help from some of my Myspace friends who helped set a picture in my head....

It is dedicated to those who have very little time left on this planet and our living day by day and dedicated to those who make their last moments as wonderful, memorable and loving as possible,

Your Friend,

Jesse
