Heaven stands a step away from me...
With a hint of your air I’m destined--
Onward to a moonlit night of reflection.
This collaboration of hearts points me
in the direction of a particular gesture of intimacy.

This range of sight is breathtaking
To one such as me, not readily familiar
with opening my eyes
to a halo of sunset around the horizon...

Embrace my spoken phrase before the crimson lessens;
Catch my eyes before the glimmer fades.
Tell me what I’m thinking, like you always do;
Draw from me the passion we came here to find...
Take me from the obsessive nature of the wayward stars
and give to me the composure of the waterfall...

Baby, I’ll never forget the morning I awoke
to find you waiting for my eyes;
I relocated closer to your arms as we watched the haze
of the silent railroad tracks just beyond the window...

-kh

And did you know with the rain in your pockets,
you can change the weather...

K,

This was beautiful sweets! As always
you write with perfect imagery. It
astounds me sometimes in which the depth
that you've write...as I've said you've
grown by leaps and bounds and it's
been wonderful to watch you develop!

take care

Onward to a moonlit night of reflection.
=================================
Embrace my spoken phrase before the crimson lessens;
Catch my eyes before the glimmer fades.
Tell me what I’m thinking, like you always do;

Draw from me the passion we came here to find...
Take me from the obsessive nature of the wayward stars
and give to me the composure of the waterfall...


Baby, I’ll never forget the morning I awoke
to find you waiting for my eyes;
=======================================

This is fabulous writing Kris...
I really love this one..(hard not to from my view)
I love the comparisons and anologies of nature, imagery and emotion...
you always do that so well...but this one is more personal than ethereal and I see so much of your "inspire" in this...(again...biased)  

"Tell me what I’m thinking, like you always do"

careful there girlie...that will make a certain Aquarian's ego swell...
makes him right AGAIN (blahblah)  

very very cool poem Poetess K  

This distance has shown how the road remains alone
Now I'm looking in my life ... for a truth that is my own.

Wow, this is so cool!

"Embrace my spoken phrase before the crimson lessens;
Catch my eyes before the glimmer fades.
Tell me what I’m thinking, like you always do;
Draw from me the passion we came here to find...
Take me from the obsessive nature of the wayward stars
and give to me the composure of the waterfall..."
Whew! I had to copy and paste half the poem to highlight what I liked best.

It was all beautiful but I loved these two lines for in them is absolute trust in someone to make you all that you can be, in otherwords a soulmate...
Take me from the obsessive nature of the wayward stars
and give to me the composure of the waterfall...

I'm thinking perhaps this 'glimmer' will not fade~

Beautifully expressive~

I so love the moments when I have the time
to enjoy the poetry here like I used to and

perfect mix of imagery and warmth, I know
the one it's intended for will be most
touched by the words you wove here..and we
are lucky to have read this as well.
