along the edge of solitude
I walked to the rhythm of our heartbeats...
even with arms outstretched,
I could barely maintain my balance...

the earth-shattering sparkle in your eye
fully captured my thoughts...
the enveloping caress in your embraces
has illuminated any darkness in my night sky...

the moon and stars fall at your feet
even before you wake...
the mystery in the distant lighthouse
could never compare to the captivation of your gaze...

the raging waves of the sea
have calmed at the sight of you...
but the flutter of a thousand butterflies
will always get the best of my composure...

not one cloud dares to appear
when you surround me with your affection...
each sound in the night collaborates
to harmonize with the endless passion between us.

-kh 04/12/01

to be with you...
I've tried to hide my passion,
but it's just no use...
piece by piece I lose it
when you walk into the room...

==========================

very very cool imagery SP
I love the ethereal and elmental use of metaphor here..
the celestial essence of it.
your work always has wonderful poetic phrases and vocabulary but they are unique and they are never cliche' or over used..

"has illuminated any darkness in my night sky...

"each sound in the night collaborates"

and you also write with a poetic intelligence
and grace far beyond your years.
very cool write here...
when you write like this...
I dont even notice your not rhyming    


baby, dont you work so hard for this prize you found ...
it will all be gone when you turn around ...
cuz, nothing lasts forever anyway ...

SEA:  thank you so much!  I am glad you like this!  

Maureen:  well, thanks!  I am happy to see that you enjoyed this!  

Becky:  yes, I do feel very lucky...thanks so much!  

JM:   ...yeah, yeah...I tried...I really tried to rhyme, but I didn't want to ruin my thoughts by forcing something that just wasn't going to come out right...know what I mean?  Is that a good enough excuse??     but, thank you, m'friend, for your encouraging replies...it  makes my day to see your name on my posts because you always have the best things to say!     ok, ok...I will keep trying with the rhyme...blah blah blah...
