What Then?


if you found me
some afternoon
just here
dressed this way
with nothing else
to do but love you

if you found me
standing or
maybe sitting
content with just
the sight of you

if you found me
I mean
exactly now
this moment

what then?

I had such a good response... honest! *G* But Aenimal's had me laughing so much I choked on my coffee... so anything I say now is written with diminished capacity. *G*

with nothing else
to do but love you

if you found me

the sight of you

I think anyone with even the remotest interest (which does, of course, except Aenimal, thank heavens LOL)would know she'd found treasure... and answer "what then?" with "forever, at least" *S*

This definitely provokes one to think about what's really important... excellent write! *S*

Love Aenimal's reply it threw me into silly laughter.
What The? Good question. May lead to romantic interludes.
Good one

Ed...Such an open and vulnerable heart would be hard to resist.
