541. A Day With Sky Poem by Jaden Knight

We meet at a private airport
where I take you up in a green Piper Arrow
to see the sun rise over the horizon
signalling the start of a fantastic day

When land we go to the nearest stables
where two fine white mares wait patiently for us
the stable hands help you mount up
while I settle the price of the hire

We gallop through the forest all morning
laughing and singing as we ride
it doesn't matter that you have forgotten the words
and I am badly out of tune

We have lunch on a grassy hilltop
to let our steeds graze happily
as we enjoy our own lunch
hearing only the songs of birds
as we revel in the tranquillity

When we get back I take you to town
to buy you a suitable dress and shoes for the evening
carefully selecting items that will be a perfect fit
while you are being pampered in a salon

With your hair and nails done we retreat to a nice hotel
for us both to shower and get changed for the evening
you look stunning in your sky blue dress and heels
complimenting my navy tux with shiny black shoes

We would go to the best seaside restaurant for dinner
not caring about the cost of the food
I refuse to show you the bill when I pay
shredding it carefully so you don't see

We watch the sun set on the beach
and I put my jacket around your shoulders
am not ready to go home just yet
and have one last surprise for you

The boat is waiting for us at the jetty when we arrive
a green Cranchi Z35
I cast off and start the engines
opening up the throttle to maximum
taking us out to sea

After an hour I stop the engines
so only the sound of the sea can be heard
we sit and talk under the full moon
knowing that we have complete privacy

Eventually I realise you're getting tired
and carefully navigate our way back to the jetty
no one is around when we get back
as I tie up the boat carefully

We get a taxi to take you home
you doze off in the back seat
only waking up when we are outside your door
and I have settled with the driver
I hug you good night and say good bye


I do not leave until I hear you lock the door
then I know that you will be safe
and hopefully undisturbed as you sleep

As I made my way home I smile
at the fun had between you and I
I look forward to the next occasion
when I can spend a special day with Sky
