You've Touched Me You’ve touched my heart And there’s a child inside Who doesn’t know How to say thank you. 'Tis this child your kindness Reached out to and caressed. She doesn’t know what to say When you tell her Her beauty is more Than skin deep.. You’ve touched my soul And there’s a woman inside Whose never known such Beauty in written form. Your words express love, The kind she’s unfamiliar with, Words that heal, Words that forgive. Words that bless And kiss every syllable.. You’ve touched my life And there’s a kindred spirit inside Of me that has suddenly come alive. You say I am blessed With talent from God And that I have touched you. You've said my words Are heartfelt and real. You've spoken the truth Because now and for always, I want you to know, You've touched me so.. Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. T S Eliot |

You acknowledge yourself when you accept a compliment. To be able to accept a compliment and believe it, gives one confidence. When you have the capacity to "touch someone" and I know you do with your words all the time, that is a gift. You my dear lady are gifted, and your words also touch me!  ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |

Yes it is good to remember that our words touch someone. Good or bad. Good writing. Joyce |

This is such a down to earth open render of love and passion...the best kind the honest willing loyal kind...a really fine work !! The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

Thank you for all your kind words. There are so many parts within us all that become touched by someone's words.. I loved writing about these three parts in me. KateGenuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. T S Eliot |

It is truly awesome when our words or actions can touch another's heart when they need it most. It is a great feeling. What we give, we receive tenfold. I loved this!! Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
