Your Touch

You touch and I’m left dangling on a string with heart expanding
and I do believe no angling will relieve me of its load for now I’m
captured, snared and raptured by sensations manufactured on a
countdown to a fracture bursting to explode.

Out blast the tingling impacts riding nerves to every synapse
telling knees and legs they might collapse upon this flattened
floor. I’m drenched in breathless breathing that now blinds my
heart perceiving why my lungs and mouth are grieving since
there’s oxygen no more

‘cause your aroma sends me reeling with hypnotic smell careening
into muscle, flesh and bone at rates which can’t be charted
and I would spend forever basking in your breath with everlasting
hope you’d never end my gasping only just now started.

And from this magic moment transfixed, I will find your image
did fix in my mind when Time does insist I have reached my end.
I’ll walk Eternity without the stumbling on legs and feet made whole
from crumbling ‘cause thoughts of you will brace my tumbling  
down that breakless bend.

Going to read it again and also saving it!

Peace and joy in the New Year!

Margherita – I am so very proud this piece is totally after your heart. Now you’ve got me captivated and I can’t catch my breath either. Wait! I just caught it……and just in time too. Whew! Come on back and read again after saving it. I’ll make sure they keep the lights on. Three ‘wows’ make me a fan of your kingdom. I’m just glad to be a visitor in it. Have a great year M. Namyh

Jo – Anytime one poet can resurrect a lovely  memory in another poet, you just know it’s gonna be one of those good years arriving just in time, latearrival. So let it be written. So let it be done. Thanks for enjoying. Namyh

Kat - Believe it or not, here’s how it started. I asked a very special someone to just touch my hand to see if I could translate the experience of a single touch into words which would resonate in the reader. Before I knew it, those poetic triplets began invading the writing and I was heading down a path of eternity at the breakneck speed of love. Whoa! I mean Whew! Ok, both. I love writing like that and I’m so very happy it resonated in you Kat. Namyh
