The Baladeer

By janmew

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Close your eyes my darling and listen to the balladeer; imagine I am with you and you can hold me near. He might sing a hurtin’ song of struggles and hardship he might tell the tragic story of a long since sunken ship. Next might be a travelin’ song perhaps a history or two; and he has found many ways of singing “I Love You” Whatever he is singing has the same effect on me I feel like I am close to you when I hear him sing, you see. I know that were I with you while we listened to each song I would hold your hand my dear as I softly sang along. So Darling close your eyes, when you hear the balladeer and I'll be right there with you and you can hold me near. Written February 10th, 2002 © on Feb 10 2002 06:43 AM PST   18 • 0 • 8
