Caleb and Charlotte

Caleb and Charlotte

This took me all day to do. Firstly I put a different head on the woman,then put her on the horse.I then put a shirt on the man,changed the colour of his trousers and hair and added him to the fog scene as well.

This is the poem Sally Omar and I wrote together to go with this picture. We sure had fun.LOL.

Caleb was in the field
The fog so thick he could barely see
Charlotte riding her stallion
This made her feel free

Caleb thought he heard something
It sounded like a song
Greensleeves..that was it
But he thought..perhaps he was wrong

Charlotte rode slowly
Barely could she see
Not at all minding
Singing a melody

She passed Caleb..and stopped
She saw him standing there
Being surprised at first
By his beautiful blond hair

As their eyes met
A smile covered his face
He had never seen someone
Riding a horse..dressed in lace

Charlotte didn’t believe
In love at first sight
Until she saw him
Her heart leapt in flight

She felt stirrings
As she’d never known before
The feeling of excitement
Shaking her to the core

Caleb was shocked at first
Thinking he’d seen a ghost
As he gazed upon her beauty
He knew he desired her the most

She parted her lips
Said “Good Morning, sir”
And then Caleb knew
His dream woman was her

Charlotte turned her stallion
Disappearing from sight
Caleb called out to her
His voice feeling tight

He felt so lost
Feeling such great pain
Till her heard her voice
Calling…”We’ll meet again.”

He thought of her
And thoughts remained
After meeting her
He was never the same

Caleb looked all over town
But could not find
Beautiful Charlotte
She was always on his mind

One day again in the fog
He heard a sound
It was Charlotte
When he turned around

She giggled
And he laughed with glee
He was thrilled
Charlotte he did see

He grabbed her hand
He held her near
She felt so warm
And in no fear

Caleb told her of his love
And how he must
Marry her soon
Charlotte did blush

She cried as she said “No
I am not really here
Although you see me
I am not of this world, dear”

Many years before
In the fog
Her horse threw her
When he tripped on a log

They both died
Face to face
And come back
To ride in this place

Poor Caleb
Love not attained
In the fog
He just remained
