Lovers in the sun.

I took her hand in mine
The wind blew on our faces
As we walked the narrow path.

Her hair danced in the wind
Swinging over her shoulders,
Like a Tamil princess in Bollywood.

A cap, a hat
I don't know which I offered her
But it kept the hair from my nostrils.

Her face glowed like a firefly
We turned face, our eyes met
Her lips quivered in desire.

A few steps in silence
Then we smiled, And laughed
At our own naughtiness and the cries of the cricket.

All the while her man strolled behind us
Watching with happiness and envy
Maybe someday he'll lose her to me, he feared.

Hand in hand
We continued the path
Till darkness covered our fear

Now we sat together to have a beer
I watched her bundle into his arms
Savoring the taste of her lipstick on my tongue.

Quite poetic and romantic, you can really feel the sweetness of the words as you read each stanza. Was it easy to inspire you?

Poetry is easy for me, it's only the curse of the standard that kills me.

so you are such a great poet bro,@wafrica is fortunate to have you @lordjames

I used to write a few lines when I'm happy or sad. Emotions do inspire me.

drunk in lovvvvvve....
I wish I can still write like this. The poetry is lovely.

With another man's girl.

But why were you hanging out with someone else's gal? @lordjames...lolz. Nice lyrics!

Cause it's sweeter.

When you thief am abi 😂😂😂

@lordjames this your interesting poetry is making me fall in love with this same girl oo.. Who is her man sef?? I still have some bullets here and I can borrow your gun.

Come baby, I'll wear a hat for you...
I'll let down my golden hair let the winds reveal her beauty to you...
I'll let you hold my hand as we walk down the path to the stream at sunset...
I'll let you kiss me when the sun, finally it buries her brilliance in the deep blue sea...
I'll let you explore my honeyness as we lay in the field under the sparkling stars....
I'll make you a chamber in my heart, there you may remain forever...
This love I have for you is but a pain in the ads that only your touch can bring me relief...
This love I have for you is my dead that only your acceptance will bring me life...
Never, have I been in love...
It's so powerful that even the strongest is weak before it...
Smash not my love...

You should write a lot more poem. I'm already in love with you but I prefer another man's girl. So I'll wait till he fall in love wit you then I'll come to be your sweet little dirty secret.

I don't know much about love, I'll like it if you teach me first, how to be another man's girl...
I want you to corrupt me first...

I prefer if the man is alive so we can share the shopping list.

I prefer if the
Man is alive so we can
Share the shopping list.

You caused it. I couldn't keep it anymore.

From the photo, I can see that a cap it was that you offered her....Nice shot
Beautiful poem...

I love this poem...

my goodness. This looks too real to fit into fiction. This is a beautiful play words. @lordjames with the many sides.
I didn't know that this side also existed. You're full of surprises. Tell me what to expect next...

Don't expect anything, you will be disappointed.

Compelling and Superb
