In the vista wide before my eye <br />the shining guiding star of midnight sky <br />the evening breeze was very cold and dry <br />I looked for Peace - then - there was You. <br /> <br />In the soft glow of campfire light <br />and all the noises of the night <br />until the dawn of morning bright <br />I looked for Joy - and - there was You. <br /> <br />In every footprint on the sand <br />alone - no one to hold my hand <br />horizon far - I look for distant land <br />I looked for Hope - yes - there is You <br /> <br />The haunting cry of snowy soaring gulls <br />a distant memory at my heart string pulls <br />the booming crash of waves my senses dulls <br />I looked for Life - ahhh - there is You. <br /> <br />The wide horizon of the shining sea <br />I muse on how things really ought to be <br />a Paradise on Earth for you and me? <br />I looked for Love - now - There is always You!<br /><br />John Knight<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/1009-there-is-always-you/
