We become closer When I view your fragile heart It’s rhythm thirsty and dry, as you pull the curtain shut Flashing teeth and fronting wounded disposition…harsh and vulgar by omission A shove against my softer side, discouraging warm winds applied to drawbridge futility And I am wounded for the moment, recoiling and pulling in the spring behind billows Gray and thundered pillows…swelled with rain that cannot cease or turn the inside out This silence like a channel stuck in mud, pond the weeded bed of stagnant oil bled We become closer That I take my leave and move beyond your eyes into the hollow of the eve Tender to your solitude foreboding mouth of lake and lingered it’s reprieve Thinking we are done, and said with spine that vehemence has won Yet I love you Following impressions in the sand to where you stand I am the rain, finally and fragrantly a touch beyond your walls made clear A touch upon your side to let you know I’m here To hear you in the quiet of your thoughts, or fallen by the dreams expired Within me all of love that is required…all that is to be desired Moving closer two in nights conspired Copyright Kkh 04/01/05 |

I am the rain, finally and fragrantly a touch beyond your walls made clear A touch upon your side to let you know I’m here To hear you in the quiet of your thoughts, or fallen by the dreams expired Wow. How did such a magnificent piece of work drift down this page of blue? Hugging you for your sensitivity. Chris |

this pours emotion in a soft rain touch - it traces the fragile of tender hearts - wonderfully done - Susan If I wander far enough, long enough, will I finally know . . . |

And I am wounded for the moment, recoiling and pulling in the spring behind billows Gray and thundered pillows…swelled with rain that cannot cease or turn the inside out You just get better and better with every poem. Such a delight you are to read, Kathleen~ |
