She whispered...
I wasn’t sure...reading into this might...
Well...you know....or do you?

I sat there, a flush rising through me
as I thought of the word....I know I
heard it, or was it her eyes?

Ahhh, the coolness of skin that turns
suddenly warm....as blood rushes through
veins...as passions built......yet wait...
wait to see if the eyes still hold the answer..

Look into my eyes, show me the answer
that my veins say is true....Do the eyes
echo my own?  Or....is the image I see
that of myself....

A gentle breeze flows into the room,
a curtain stirs slowly....suddenly I feel
the presence of a hand upon my chest.
I reach to touch.....yet nothing is there..
A dream perhaps?  

Let me sleep, that I might hear the answer
to the sparkle of blues....That I might sing
a lover’s song as a melody shared by two..

As two become one....

And one lives eternally in endless dreams
whispering........

Yes!

OH I agree this is very very good...
and aren't you the sensual gent lately..It is becoming to your muse so I hope it continues

Poetry is:
Passion, imagination and intellect running together.

Aloha with warmest regards, Cheryl Stewart Koomoa

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Ahhh, the coolness of skin that turns
suddenly warm

This reads like a breath of fresh air..
in a whispered dream.

Your thoughts make such a grand entrance with their classy flair!  

Very nice Barry~

"A gentle breeze flows into the room,
a curtain stirs slowly....suddenly I feel
the presence of a hand..."

and the poet
is touched
by his
muse
