Nothing ever seems to be
enough.

We are endless in the cutting sweep of
our appetite.

Hunger is the nature of
flesh -

And we are starved for union.

Perhaps this could be
enough...

To feed only of ourselves in a
holy feast of pleasure.

Or this...

To be filled in a soulful kiss of
met desire.

This...

To fast in the distance of a touch...whetting our
hunger in a slow burn towards each
other.

Yes...this.

This would be enough.

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.

lovely Ericc~

~~**~~
The sound of silence calls,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
The echo of our souls meet

I can never get enough of you, dear Eric.

You are beauty and wisdom, your poetry is of outstanding quality .....

One by one
I take your words
to fill my hands
with silky rose petals
of enticing fragrance

will this be enough
to meet my desire
of inhaling love
with every breath?

*

.... and as it is already April 17th here ...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
ENJOY YOUR SPECIAL DAY AND LET LOVE FLOW INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVOUR IT!

I love you. Margherita
