...here are two I wrote earlier this month that I hesitated posting because I wasn't sure they said enough, but they've not changed so here goes...jimmy




Caught In An Emotion

Caught in an emotion,
memories trapped inside,
visions of loving,
warmth like fire, inside,
oh, I feel like shouting;
my god, what's this feeling,
this ecstascy...I feel so alive,
and baby, it's your face I see,
your hair, your eyes,
your body next to mine;
oh my, oh...my,
what love my heart
does know.




LoveStruck

Your glass sits next to mine,
empty with just a hint
of sweet red wine,
two sparking vessels,
barely touching,
like our softly holding hands
gently feeling one anothers
presence, aware of the world
awaiting just inches away,
knowing the love of intimate sharing,
fingers caressing, lingering with each touch,
slowly, sweetly, tentatively saying so much;
your hand and mine...
lovestruck.

*sigh* you said in these wonderful two stanzas what I take pages to say. *sigh* and you say it with such romance. Beautiful, my friend, I loved it. Thank you so much for sharing with me.

Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams. [URL=http://path2riches.com]http://path2riches.com

Us guys can't "sigh" (at least not in public), so I'll just say thanks.

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

I'm not sure how either one of these could
possibly say more than what they do...they
are beautiful just the way they are!  It's
not the number of words used to weave the
emotion...it's the emotion used to weave the
words...and it's obvious you used the
perfect amount of both~


The best and most beautiful things
in the world cannot be seen or even touched
---- they must be felt with the heart~

short in length they may be but short in impact they are not...

unlike Startime, i doubt all the pages i use will ever convey such emotions as effectively as you do so here...

enchanting read
