Okay, I'm tired of being a spectator. Reading all these romantic, mushy love poems has stirred my desire to be a participant. This is not my forte but nevertheless. Midnight Kisses Gentle waves lap at our feet The sand’s still warm from the sun To be in love is oh so sweet When two souls entwine as one We stand in the ocean’s foam It tickles our toes like champagne I’m so warm in your tender embrace I don’t feel the falling rain Laughing and running for shelter We seek seclusion among the dunes Our passion rises like high tide Hidden away from all but the moon Wrapped in our blanket of love The cadence of hearts skip a beat Romance soars on wings of a dove Moonlight kisses taste deliciously sweet Cheryl McClellan 1/14/02 [This message has been edited by His Poet (01-14-2002 01:03 PM).] |

Cheryl - for someone that doesn't write romance, this is a winner. And those kisses in the moonlight would be lovely, while dancing under that Haunted Moon... BC |

Cheryl,my NC friend I don`t think there is a poem at all you couldn`t write.Your talent expands to all types.As for me I only have two kinds of poems and most of them are silly.I really loved this!    Juanita |

Well done, and romantic, yes, it is. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

For someone who says her forte isn't romance, you sure do pen a tender romantic poem. |

Hello Cheryl You say that romantic poetry is not your forte? I find that so hard to believe. You weaved your words of romance so well in this piece and I enjoyed it immensely. Take care......Sue Suetang |

For not having written romance before this was wonderful! I loved it, you must write more. This was SO sweet!!! It makes me yearn for the ocean. Great work! Noelle "Hold fast to dreams, for is dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly" Langston Hughes |

Cheryl - Truly a moonlight masterpiece. I think if you put your mind to it, you could write on any topic you wanted. This is a perfect example of that. Nice rhyme, rhythm, and imagery. Well done, as always. Dave |

Juanita and Stevie, as always, thanks for being so kind in replying. Nita, I love you sweet down to earth poetry. Anything else would lack that warm quality that either has me smiling or crying. Never change what you excel at. Love, Cheryl |
