Gentle Minds
I have a love that seems to know The poems of my mind She says that when she thinks of me All that she can find Is kindness, love and gentle words and ways, of gentle men I wish to take her with my soul and know her love again. She knows that in the hearts of men are passion and desires In ordinary lives exist Secluded, different fires So dare I let my soul reveal The wonts and woes of all? For man is never perfect, love So shall I tell her all?
Yes. I have a love that seems to know The poems of my mind.

Nice to see a ballad style poem of yours Raymond, and very poetic too, I must say.
Love the lines …
‘I wish to take her with my soul
and know her love again.’
Thank you, Mandy, it is kind of old-fashioned isn’t it…kind of old too, it seems many love-ballads are like that “:)
