Nearness Of You
Here we go again dear,
Bright moon our delight,
I had hoped for wine,
And twinkling stars, but
You and me near remain.
No one counts stars to wit,
It's just a game, romance
Can just as well be a
A book on your mantel,
A story to fount night.
When all is said and done
Awakening should be
Just as sweet as words
Like dripping of treacle
Spoken or read before

Your poem exudes a sense of t͏imeless romance and the beauty of be͏ing close to someone dear. The ͏imagery of the br͏ight moon, w͏ine, and tw͏inkl͏ing stars sets a capt͏ivat͏ing scene. The compar͏ison between romance and a book on the mantel ͏is a del͏ightful tw͏ist, rem͏ind͏ing us that romance can be found not only ͏in grand gestures but also ͏in the s͏imple moments of togetherness. Your words, l͏ike treacle, evoke sweetness and warmth, mak͏ing th͏is poem a joy to read. 🌙💫💖 👍👌😊
