Turn, turn, turn

Nothing stayed the same.

                         Turn, turn, turn

The old poet sang a lullaby.
Sensual woman whispered to me once.
Come live with me and be my lover.
I will be your salvation and you will be my rock to keep me steady.

Beautiful lady ambushed my heart and I learn her appetite  for
kisses and embrace. Her charm and sovereign eyes made me blind
and with the wishes for more.

Real life lullabies rarely are perceived till too late.
Our heart and mind turn, turn and turn some more.

Love demand payment.
The chronicle of an forever love is like a willow tree.
We must be willing to flex and bend like free branches to keep the sovereign eyes,
bright, content and near.

Love bold, love behold, love dwell where  two people hold tightly when the storms
of life is at hand.

You have spoken truly wise word here, my friend. It might be said that a love that demands payment is no love at all.

You are right. Thank you for reading and the comment.

Your writing is really mesmerizing in so many ways. This awareness, and understanding of our need for human companionship yet accepting its transient nature in one's life.

Thank you. The old song made me think and write. I love Judy Collin voice. I appreciate the comment dear friend.

Love demands payment.
True! Nothing comes without a price.
But its not money. Love just needs time, care and trust :) but people don't understand that.
Hope they understand soon.
A great poem :)

Love can be difficult and painful. People forget this and bail when s**t gets rough. Find someone who can stick it out when you crash land. That would be a beautiful thing

[Coyote Poetry]

It would. Can happen.

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

A most telling and witty piece that lays bare those nonsense in descriptive fervour, well done, great read.

Old music make us write. The good songs will always stay the good songs. Thank you for reading my words. I appreciate.

This is really a well-knit poem with some rhythemic qualities of lullbay. I love it for the message and structual qualities yet needs some edit on computer with length of every rhymed lines.....Thanks sharing this lovely piece..
Have a nice time!

true love is never free....we have to (in turn) give back as much as we get..."love demands payment"---

exactly....this is so good...and that is such a good song...really like Judy's version of it...
