Where the mighty Ohio river crosses the borderline into Kentucky in spiritual dreams I  saw a girl and came to love her endlessly. A dream text but often dreams come true

 




Aspin Time by M.A.Meddings

All of our yesterdays
Are like drops of summer rain
R
emembering how soft we  were
H
ow gentle was the pain
O
f being in love and out again
As
on Sunday after church
You in your flouncing aloofness
For me 
a boy
There was nothing worse
T
han to see you walk away that day
W
ith you nose in the air
A
s if I didnt matter then
J
ust like you never cared
T
hat my tears had  flowed in hidden shame
As my heart was broken too
And
I went on with life aghast
Thoughts of you just wouldnt pass
For I could never 
forget you
Thus 
in shameless dignity
I tried to win you back again
but then
'Twas far to late to save the love 
Sophisticate became you 
You  wanted another man 
As I 
I
n sublime loneliness
I
waited for a time 
U
ntil the world had turned 
And I could make you mine
I loved you then in Aspin time
Down by the banks
Of the Ohio
And I will 
love once again
Where that mighty river flows

and our dreams have come true my love and are still coming to realization. Each day our love grows and grows. And soon we will
walk hand in hand down on rivers edge and look at the fossil beds and get ice cream at the little victorian shop nearby and then watch as the Belle of Louisville steams up and down the Ohio with its big paddles stirring up the river water. I love this poem darling. It brings alive all sorts of my hopes for a beautiful future with you, the man I love. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxyblovesyou
