Poetry Friday - Wild Nights

Next to Halloween, Valentines day is one of my least favorite holidays. Why do I need a special day to tell my love how I feel? I have every day for that. He's not much of a poetry lover, but I know he'd appreciate this one by Emily Dickinson. I'll bet the love of your love would like it too.

Wild nights! Wild nights!
Were I with thee,
Wild nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile the winds
To a heart in port,
Done with the compass,
Done with the chart.

Rowing in Eden!
Ah! the sea!
Might I but moor
To-night in thee!

The round up is being hosted by Lee Wind at I'm Here. I'm Queer. What the Hell do I read?. Do stop by and take in the great poetry being shared. Before you go, be sure to check out this week's poetry stretch results. Happy poetry Friday all!
