Don't Forget My Love, My Cherie

When the golden day has ended

and the evening shadows blue

start to steal down from the heavens

my heart is yours anew,

so don't forget my love, my cherie.



When the moon has clouded over

and the raindrops start to fall

and the breeze begins to whisper

of your love which is my all,

please don't forget my love, my cherie.



When you sailed across the ocean

to a land you never knew,

you had taken my devotion

and had promised me that you

would not forget my love, my cherie



And when the morning sun begins to climb

and church-bells start to peal their worship chime,

I'll be waiting for your ship to sail in view

thinking of each day I'll be with you,

I won't forget your love, my darling,

so please tell me,

that you won't forget my love, my cherie.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I originally wrote this poem as song lyrics... but, like a lot of other songs in my life, it never got sung.
