    Poem Commentary

    Dedicated to my ex-girl friend: C. Chiemela Iheukwumere

    A DATE AT NIGHT

     I stand in the way that brings you through
    Believing the voice I heard was true
    I gaze endlessly at the unending lane
    With strength no time could wane

    Tick-tock! Shouts the table clock nearby
    I only wish, oh! If you could be standby
    Long seems the time, I wont let go
    For I have waited for a long time ago

    Table stacked with pies, cheese and wine
    Candles glowed as the pendulum struck nine
    The impatient stars calm in wait with me
    Anxious to see my joy come to be
    They gazed into the dark in search of you
    To guide you with sparks as they always do
    The night gale blew with might
    Sweeping the dark to lead you aright

    I join the crickets in their harmonious piece
    To receive the one who brings my soul peace
    Sit with me great love of my life
    As we dine as husband and wife

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
