River Of Time Poem by Alan Hagler

Floating along on a river of time
A riverboat gambler on a boat named Sublime
You dance in the red cabaret of my heart
Together through the universe we’ve paddle wheeled from the start
Waving from the deck rail of eternity to Huck and Jim
Their raft lazily floating as the sunset of forever grows dim
Then into the crimson gambling hall off we stroll
The cards are dealt and the dice start to roll
So sensual in your black fishnet hose
Black garter belt with a small pink woven rose
My top hat cocked back with assurance and flair
Dealing the cards drawing the inside straight to the pair
Chips chatter and dance on a green felt stage
The piano roll blues fill the air through the haze
You’re dancing alluring, sensuality in flight
Music enticing fills the air through the night
Each season twin lovers on the river of time
Forever soul mates on a boat named Sublime
