Desired

The forest path awaits
Awaits footsteps walking
Walking naked of shoes
Shoes meant for little feet
Feet that are just size six

Her silent step’s known here
Here among scented pines
Pines that sing ancient songs
Songs of wind in branches
Branches shiver with joy

Continues well known path
Path leading to desired
Desired within her soul
Soul that searches for one
One whose love is seen

Steps are quickened forward
Forward to secret place
Place where one becomes we
We kinhined in the woods
Woods that rejoice for us

While moving together
Together sharing love
Love that needs to grow
Grow when it is desired
Desired by seeking heart

Ah, that special place is something I can totally comprehend. My first wife and I used to take walks to our "special" place beneath the tall pine trees.

To this day, I still recall those tall pines.

Let's all hear it for those "special places."

Lovely Karen
Nice images as always and that desired heart is there floating like the elusive butterfly of love as expressed by Bob Lind.

Gorgeous poem Karen,
You certainly have a way with words and I am going to very much enjoy reading all your work.
You speak to my soul.
Cheers
