font-family: Alice;\">In a midnight parade the creatures of the night are walking by, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">It was a beautiful sight to see so many even those that could fly, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">One by one these creatures of night paraded by making their sound, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Squeaks, squeals, whistles, hoots and more in this night&#8217;s surround, \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">How I wondered did such a thing as this become possible or real, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Then to amaze my mind I saw flowers of passion ride a cart of steel, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Moonflower so bright and white bloomed to release its essence, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">All this with flowers abloom made me wish I was in your presence, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">When you came to be right next to me it awoke my mind to even more, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">As this nocturnal parade of life came to be I was aroused by amour,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">It was but a moment in time when you and I were the youths of before, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">&#8216;Twas an evening of fortune I supposed aloud as I asked you for more, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">It was quite loud yet quietly I spoke asking of my keel of which I mused, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Yes, quite loud it was, the nocturnal parade of which I was very amused, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Perhaps my speaking of my vessel now has left all of you a bit confused, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">The beautiful Patti and I came to see this parade that made us bemused, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">How can two words come to be so similar in sound of quiet and quite loud, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">An oddity of speech I&#8217;ve used however use of these words made her proud, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">She lights to show my way although she lights upon the floor from a cloud, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Of her descriptions fall short if only usage of more language was allowed,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">See, the beautiful Patti and I had braved the seas of life&#8217;s turmoil to be, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">In this place of nocturnal oddity of which I&#8217;ve written just to please she, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">It&#8217;s within our hearts that love dwells yet shared through unknown force, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">My need to feel her beauty as she accepts me kept my keel on course, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Oh yes she was beautiful to such extreme envy filled the hearts of peers, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">The teller of my rhyming tale must testify she is beautiful beyond her years, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">On a vessel powered by desire&#8217;s passion we have gone where fate steers, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">The keel of my vessel is firm of belief that her love of me conquers my fears, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Our journeys in life have taken us far and possibly too far for the masses, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">So many beautiful sights we have shared as we&#8217;ve made love on grasses, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">All the thoughts of a man have flowed through my soul and earthly chassis, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">So sensuous to touch as I&#8217;ve learned every nuance through passion classes, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Her thoughts are within her heart to remain secure unless released aloud, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">I have touched upon her soul as she has told me I have made her proud, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">No greater honor has a man than to be at her side in the parade&#8217;s crowd, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Name me &#8220;man of the year&#8221; as Patricia Napier&#8217;s man to put me on a cloud, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">The finality of life is difficult for those souls that haven&#8217;t journeyed beyond,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">As I have departed my body to float near her while keeping strong our bond, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">For her I live, in death I will serve as her guardian with love&#8217;s armor I&#8217;ve donned, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">As the parade concludes of nocturnal oddities I pull close the one I&#8217;m so fond, <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">For a kiss from her has more power than that of airliners high in the sky, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">Without thrust or power of man&#8217;s creation her kiss can make men fly, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">I&#8217;m the chosen one in her life, the protector of whom she has come to rely, <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">I fall into her heart at night as she caresses my soul and says, &#8220;you&#8217;re my guy&#8221;. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Alice;\">The end, by Pat for Patti, I love you.\u00a0 09\/11\/2016<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a midnight parade the creatures of the night are walking by, It was a beautiful sight to see so many even those that could fly, One by one these creatures of night paraded by making their sound, Squeaks, squeals, whistles, hoots and more in this night&#8217;s surround, \u00a0 &nbsp;
