Unforgettable

Skin soft sweep whispers its cavernous fascination
Unfolding the universe in eclectic tides
Building, surging; sinking and welling to overflow
Familiarities, still electric
More than a jolt to my heart, more intimate than sound
Moist, in precise and sensual remembrances
An emotion set in glass and starlight
Given name and wings to span the ages
By sacred breath, made warm
Tenderness applies to brush mere eyes
Always refilled as emptied

smiling--do you know I sigh, quite often and audibly after reading you?

Beautiful, so very beautiful...

and of course, as a fan, I heard the musical strains of "unforgettable" in my mind's soundtrack.

I'm tellin' ya, Kay, you should bottle this stuff--it's that good!

"Tenderness applies to brush mere eyes
Always refilled as emptied"

Dear Kathleen, thanks so much for all the inspiration over the years.

Your poem is wonderful and so are you!
