Ce Soir

You touched my thoughts
as I walked with you in shadowed night.
I felt your eyes penetrating
the sheerness of me,
blushing me with kisses
as I revealed  to you
my shyness to a lover's touch.

Sweetly, gently,
you caressed away my fears
gathering me up in arms,
tenderly placing your lips
upon mine, in silent touch.

I closed my eyes
as you walked away in the mist,
fingers extended, reaching out to you,
not wanting to release your hold on me.
Tonight, in the stillness
you fill my mind,
replacing my empty dreams
with memories of you.

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.

MMoonChild~
It is SO nice to have you here ! !

I enjoyed these thoughts -

'Tonight, in the stillness
you fill my mind,
replacing my empty dreams
with memories of you.'

You'll find that I love memories and dreams !
Welcome again, my friend.

Marge, don't we all love memories and dreams..and butterflies..and the moon..and sunrises....a poet loves everything her mind's eye can capture...and that's what you have been doing so wonderfully ever since I have read your words...

thank you for being you,
Maureen

just a  small  poem for you

Cloudreams...

looking out and up this day...the skies were painted blue
the many shades from light to dark were deepest of it's hues

the cardinals flew with food in mouth to land on lines and rest
before they carried on their way, to feed those in their nest

the sun it's brightest of the day, shone yellow-gold in heat
emitting rays much brighter than behind those clouds' retreat

a butterfly had landed on the lilac's purple bloom
and all I did was paint these words, in mind within this room

my fantasy of life would be to fly the clouds in dreams
and paint the skies with thoughts of love like sprinkles on ice cream

the rainbow colors of real you see from shades of blue to green
are better than rose colored ones, a  pretense of what is seen

and one more glance I took, before returning to my bed
the beauty of the sweetest rose, the one so deeply red

was  opening up it's bud to me, another color bright
but now must leave the painted world and close my eyes tonight

Sunny1...
thank you for your nice words..I tried to  find a sunshine poem..but you know what..
I can't locate it  at this moment so I will just send you this haiku I wrote with a friend this morning

Gray clouds cover sun,
Skies moves from mist to drizzle
Yet day has begun.

Sun peeks from behind,
Seeks, finds, all those in love to
Smile upon their day.

Days of grays passing,
Sunbeams streaks a slanted sky,
Memories lasting.

Dusk turns into night,
Moonshadows pace the dark sky
In want of morn's kiss.


M&D


we do that as  fun..responding to each other in haiku

The Heavens Tilt


When the heavens tilt slightly, you fall into my arms
And the spinning of earth seems so still
With the sun and its rays streaming brightly on us
It's a warmth that continues our 'will'.

We hold onto each other, a balancing dance
Just to share in this moment, we two
'Til the stars come around, from on high to the ground
It's our sparkling of love shining through.

When we dance to the tune of each star in the sky
As it twinkles it's rhythm in gold
We two-step and turn, never missing a beat
In the arms of each other, we fold.

We twirl and we spin, turning out, turning in
As we wrap up together and rest.
What a wonderful moment to share in the air
Of an evening, summer at it's best.
