Ever wonder why
they are so very different...
Fussing over a hair...
A nail...

Why they cry at silly things...
Laugh at the male of me...
Giggle in the night
Love passionately..

How a hug brings joy
the gentle touch of silken hands...
The feel of silky skin....
Fresh as Spring dew...
Summer’s heat
Fall’s cool...

Their eyes....
A book to their soul and heart
ever open for reading..
If only you just take the time
to read...and savor each word
unspoken...but real...

Legs that defy imagined thought
that caress the eyes as eyes caress
the view of mown trees..

Love me, the eyes say softly
as whispered words echo
the feel of lace...the chase
of feel....the touch...

I will...
For thee art most lovely
and each moment is but
one moment of treasure
in pleasure
of you....

(smiles) Yes!!! Cherish each moment individually, for every smile and every tear has a poem of its own that only makes up part of an entire loves joy, not by Maybelline or hosiery! (big hugggsssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Oh Barry!!  OH BARRY!!  I feel a sigh coming on!
I think this should be read by every man alive!
OH YES!!  You sure do know how to make a woman swoon.
I know many a man who could learn a few things from reading this.
Excellent write Barry.

Exquisite Barry!! I loved every word and felt your sensitivity in this piece more than any other. You are a romantic soul. A womans dream come true. Your thoughts caress a womans mind. *sigh*

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy
