The Haunting of Heather

The Moors

By Cindy CalderPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Lovely heather on the moors

Sight of you so dear and sweet

You beckon my heart and soul

Fill my senses when we meet.

*

Oh, heather divine scattered

Across the vast hillside moors

You haunt my days and long nights

With growing mist at my door.

*

Our hearts, they beat together

‘Spite the distance betwixt us

Like a union of true love

Steadfast and true, always thus.

*

When my life leaves, stay with me

Take my body, heart, and soul

To your flower strewn gardens,

Keep me there and make me whole.
