I don’t think you really know
the feelings you can create
when your words flow over me
opening emotions gate.
Touching me with your sweetness,
reaching deep into my soul,
love overflows from my heart,
rushing like a waterfall.
All I see through the mist
is the welcome in your eyes.
All I hear above the roar
are the sweet words your heart cries.
Look through my eyes, my sweet one,
I am sure you too will see
a gentle and tender soul
and the love he has for me.

I wish you every happiness and may you always have the best of the good things in life.     a brand

this is so lovely Dee...
wonderful use of imagery and metaphor of the waterfall to enhance the express of the emotions. All wrapped up in rhyme and sweet sincerety.
A lovely inspire and intend.
well done poetess girlie, so good to see your work again  

You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do.
In the sunlight, in the shadows ...
No ... I'll never stop looking for you.

Just wanted you to know that this is one of my favorites of yours and I think a major turning point in your poetry.  The cadence was supreme, the imagery kissed the emotions delicately, and it reads like a song out loud or silently either one.  Beautiful is this piece and mesmerizing is the draw lingereing in your eyes.  Library for sure and put on a special shelf reserved only for you.

Recognize love for the gift it is and not a need that is out of focus.

Mark, you are good for my ego you know. I consider myself an average poet but you make me feel like a master.
