Listening to every heart

When You Know

I heard it
   as soft it came
        sounds of rain
              streaked windowpane

and I knew

song of devotion
     smooth love’s potion
           waves of emotion
                   as soft it came

and he knew

then the touch
     said too much
            reality and such
                  ‘twas in that touch

so we knew

never a step
     without you dear
           never know fear
                  always sincere

it’d be us two

in the rain of emotion’s touch

Oh Karilea,
You are on a roll....

WOW many times over...
.............
so we knew

never a step
     without you dear
           never know fear
                  always sincere

it’d be us two

in the rain of emotion’s touch
......

this is just part of it... actually wanted the whole thing pasted back here...  

My regards,
sudhir

I really like that

"in the rain of emotions touch."


Sudhir's right you're on a roll... this is an excellent piece, love the structure and the title the deep blend of emotion.

A touch can speak volumes can't it my friend?  

These poems are just flowing out of you aren't they???  Well, I'm not complaining, keep them coming!!!

Excellent!!

ahhh my friend has done it once again.  A little bit of rain to cleanse the air is natures way of showing she really does care.  Loved it....NOW SMILE FOR ME PLEASE.
