Behind The Ivy Covered Wall

Joseph Clark Williams

Free verse
The Summer Sun Cast Down
Upon that Ivy Covered Wall
As your Angelic Voice sang
The songs we shared those October nights
Rising from the garden of Love we planted
Beyond that Ivy Covered Wall

Behind me sits the streets of Life
Filled with her liberating and ripe fruits
Riches, Adventure, Accomplishments
But yet my heart belongs to you
Behind that Ivy Covered Wall
