(Heavily rewritten vers. Of 4/98 poem)

Close your lovely eyes keeper of my heart
Let your imagination start to rove
Let me guide you on a sweet journey
Let me tell you all aspects of my love

Close your eyes and hear the soft words
Tread different pathways to your heart
Without sound just deep sense of voice
Hear the deep emotion of my part

Close your eyes and feel my presence
All of my warmth you will agree
The passion forge within my flesh
Conveys all that our love shall be

Close your eyes, just let my breath flow
Let it's flowing on skin soft caress you
The silent message that I'm sending
I'll tell you gently as I always do

Close your eyes and feel my closeness
Rest your head sweetly upon my chest
Hear the pounding there within me
Bass drum, beating to a high crest

By your touch it is made throbbing
And so strongly it does resound
Rumbles all through the heavens
With you it will never be bound

Open your eyes now, and see me
Gaze deeply now into my eye
See all the love that resides there
Forever though all seasons fly

Use your eyes, watch me placing kisses,
My lips lightly touching your skin
Kiss here, a kiss there, a kiss, and stare
It's just a way for love to begin

Feel the security of my arms
As we embrace and we snuggle
Bands of armor, soft as silken thread
Keeping you secure with no struggle

Close your eyes again now my love
Feel the freedom, know my love will last
Find the confidence in knowing
My strong passion now holds you fast

With true love, abiding and secure love.
Love you've inspired, love for only you
Feel strength, and passion for you love
Sweet and fresh as early morning dew

~Why not seize the pleasure at once? How often is happiness destroyed by preparation, foolish preparation?

Bill, this was a riveting, sensory journey in word. Lovely thoughts shared.
