~ You Are There Here With Me ~

You are there, here with me
Sitting so still so silently
Your thoughts brush against me
Like butterfly's wings softly
I can see you so clearly
You are right here with me

You are there right beside me
Sitting there so quietly
Your mind touching me gently
Like a well of soft memory
I can hear you speak thoughtfully
You are right here with me

You are there so close to me
Sitting there so noiselessly
You touch me so calmly
Like a star you glow so softly
I can feel you there so peacefully
You are right here with me

You are there almost touching me
Sitting there now invisibly
You're holding me so tenderly
Like a whisper so ethereally
I can smell you so near to me
You are right here with me

You are there, here with me
Sitting silent and quietly
Your touch comforts me
Like a song that flows in me
I can feel you so totally
You are there, here within me

Oh my goodness, the challenge responses are rolling in.  I must nudge Lady and get her in here to read these delightful poetic responses...

and I think she needs to give more challenges more often!

Thank you one and all for reading and replying. I'm not very good at challenges you know, I have to work at them and I hate to have to work on anything, now you know I do.

Thank you truly you all mean so much to me

Love and warm stuff

You'll come back to see who put this BTTT ...methinks you need to read it again, in a whisper, to yourself...
