Soft golden rays play across my face
I hear the softness of your breath
Your warmth percolates my touching skin
Your hair is gently wispy across your face
The rise and fall of life
The rhythm of your breast
Night images play with my bleariness
Teasing and pleasing me
A soft song of fulfilment hangs on my lips
If I could only capture these moments
And sculpture them in stone
Paint them in oils
Lift them from the air
And place them on the page
Lock them away for all eternity
In a cage of thanks
Fashioned in hope
For all to see
These moments so precious
Are so fleeting
They can slip away unnoticed
And the hopeless are bereft
Of a gift so fine
That it could change time forever
Consciousness
In all its glory
Is knocking on your door
You wipe the sweet sleep
From your eyes
A smile forms your lips
A sparkle lights your eyes
I am Alive

Jon; I love your poetry! This one is so beautiful. If only moments like these could be captured, but only in the heart can they be held and remembered. Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

Aye, it's a good feeling to be alive some days.. Very well done once again Jon..  

With a little piece of tomorrow,
You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye.
Because today won't last forever,
And the past will only make you cry.

How wonderfully tenderly and sweetly you write!  It seems you found a way to capture those moments.

To love another person is to see the face of God.
