Justin Gildow Poems

Father and daughter spend some quiet time together in the living room
Shining through the curtain is the sun
And outside is the glorious afternoon
...

I can see the nightingale sing
Our love's more colorful than a starling
Take my hand, and be strong now, girl
Cuz it's our heart shaped world
...

Whether by land, sea, or air
I know they'll be there
I know they're around the world somewhere
I know they're absolutely everywhere
...

In this room right now
There's only me and you
It's just us
No one's around
...

Around this time of the year
The arrival of Spring is near
The arrival of Spring is almost here
And I'll happily be one with the spirits of nature
...

Onwards they go
The lonely girl and her dog travel along
Trying to find answers
Trying to fight for their lives
...

The girls in the beautiful gowns and elegant dresses
are ready to make this night theirs
It seems they waited a long time for it to come
They're ready to dance
...

On the haunted ship of fools
The sea surrounding the ship is gentle for the time being
The haunted ship has creaky rigging
...

I dropp to one knee
I unbuckle my helmet
And I slam it to the ground
And I count my blessings
...

What a night it could be
You and me
A Sadie Hawkins Dance and beautiful scenery
...
