The Boy Under the Tree
May 31, 2015
The boy under the tree
At night he waits for me.
The stars come out to play
And the moon lights the way
To the boy under the tree.
His arms encircle me.
Finally I can breathe.
We grin in ecstasy.
“Sit and stay with me,”
Says the boy under the tree.
His eyes swirl like the sea.
His hair is heavenly.
He laughs too easily.
Whatever will I do
With that boy under the tree?
“Without you I’m lonely
I’d do anything to see
You lying next to me
Till the end of time,”
Says the boy under the tree.
I wish that you could see
I love you completely
No place I’d rather be,
So forever I will lay
With my love under the tree.

I'm grinning from ear to ear. I can relate to this poem so much, and of course one boy stuck in my head the entire time. :) Great piece, I loved the positive "vibe" to it. My only critic would be watch the rhyme scheme (I think it was intentional), it gave it a weird rythem. You are a skilled writer, I would love to see more from you!
