Stand with Me
Drink whiskey from my lips
Northern man
I walk lonely
Watching you approach
In the darkness of night
Between the High Line
Down to my line
Solitary
Without purpose
Until you
Stand with me ....
Northern man
I walk lonely
Watching you approach
In the darkness of night

Love the mysterious feel also. Made me think of meeting a vampire in the night. :p Anyway, love the feel of comradery in the night with someone very special. And the painting is great...

My whole life has been about mysterious meetings
I'm glad you liked the words and painting.
That painting has power and I'm glad to see it received well
Thanks so much KristinaX....

Dear PS,
There is a ton to be had in the element of mystery. I don’t know why as it can be exhausting, but it’s also exhilarating. I’m conflicted about it as you see. But I’m drawn to it as of late and your poem reflects that exciting edgy element of the unknown to disrupt the everyday known. Big Dig It!

Dear H
There's a lot to be said for knowing what you have. Like a good interest rate. But then you always wonder if I took a few chances would I do better ?? Since interest rates suck right now, mystery is your next best bet. Exhilaration lasts a lifetime in achievement and memory so its never too late to take that chance .....
Always appreciate your visits and comments H ...

Re. Stand with Me
That looks like people standing together! Seriously? That's sick PoetSpeak, I love it. I know you meant, 2 people but I see a lot, maybe my own need for friendship? Who knows. But I am staying tuned indefinitely.

Love the
"Between the High Line
Down to my line".
Indicates you recognize where you are and you do not sit on a high horse, you are reachable and approachable.
Additionally, the
"Solitary
Without purpose"
Is significant. We are all solitary. I like the idea of without purpose, but there is also truth in purpose. It has to do with our core-being, our perceptions, our thinking about the world around us. However, the idea without purpose is brilliant as we can become so engrossed in our own truth, we do not recognize the truth of others. So, in my opinion, that is an extremely significant point. I love it. Excellent, cowboy.
I especially love the
"Drink whiskey from my lips".
What a turn on. Beautifully seductive. Yummy.
This is exactly as it was, but close the hell enough. Thank you for the read.

It started out as a seduction poem, drink whiskey from my lips et all but then turned as i wrote it. To be honest once I paired my painting to the poem and stood back from it I felt like I wrote something with meaning and it almost gives me chills to read it. I love that you like it so much. That has real relevance to me. I'm not far behind you in age but my mind set of world and persona and sexuality remain strong. I'm glad you're back because I always enjoy reading you and your comments. We seniors are the mentors now, but we still feel and want like we always did ... We exist and will not be silenced.
Learn from us I say .....
Thank you

Thank you for your lovely comment back at me. For some reason, I find I am drawn to you. So I will be here making comments a much as I can. Have you ever read my poem "Crone, Sage of Age?" You probably would enjoy it.

"Between the High Line
Down to my line"
Captured the power of the painting in the words for me. Don't know why, that part just made it click.
