Anticipation

Every moment away from you

My heart fills with anticipation

The moment when I shall embrace

And gather you in my arms

At day’s end, your tired face

Melts my heart with apprehension

Hiding concern, greet with a smile

And hope my love will wipe out

Your tension

Bridge of Love

The air was heavy with palpable anticipation

As we stepped gingerly into a journey unknown

Smooth sailing it was not, tumultuous and choppy

As we launched life’s catamaran on a rough sea

Two unique souls bound by a bridge of love

We set our own course of travel, far and wide

Today when the air is heavy with worries of a future unknown

My darling, with love as our light, will vanquish apprehension  

 

Weary

Weary  we all after a long, nasty campaign

Election is over but peace has not returned

Apprehension grips the minds of many

Reluctantly though they will have to face the fact

Yearning for what could have been is worthless

Weary to the bones those who lost hope

End of a beautiful dream long nurtured

And who knows when the stars align next

Right when becomes wrong it’s a danger sign

Yet it’s not the time to abandon hope

Weary but will rejuvenate and reconvene

Ending inequality and injustice is a pledge

Answer to our quests will come

Rights that were earned won’t be trampled

Yes we can,  yes we will fight to reverse the wrong
