TOGETHER APART
19 July 2011

blending
as one
willow wand
in the wind
winding arms
and legs
around each
other
they are
more than
the dance
and less
than
there

I like subtle romantic poetry. Don't care much for the "in your face" stuff. Yours is perfectand then some, Diana.

Me too, about the “in the face” stuff, Ida.  Thanks for your kind words.

"and less
than
there"

And it is where, less than there is
that is so special...a higher place than normal-stood ground, that is for certain..
"There" is where love dwells unbounded.
Oh, I enjoyed this one Diana...Thank you

Come read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling
And banish the thoughts of day.
Longfellow

love the alliteration, it trickles down the tongue like dew on a blade of grass
