Winter has melted away in just a day
Though sleep seems to flurry
Pulling night closer in a quiet discontent
And resolve turns it’s restless face to the pillow
My spirit searches out its refuge through the sand spells
Molding form that tenderly remits familiar glow
That holds the small of me against your wonder
Leaving moist the trails beneath each gentle pass
As if to trace the words of love upon my flesh
For lilt of winds that whisper past the sash
To levitate the wish that keeps me breathing
Your heart is firm and warm within my arms
A landscape I have learned and traveled
Brings sweet dew upon the morning rose
Until the fair of dawn arrives to place
Your kisses on thoughts left incomplete

Ahhh, what a gentle awakening this is!
Those kisses may mitigate the distress of something left incomplete in thoughts or dreams ...
A very beautiful piece!
Love, Margherita

Beautiful Kathleen....
love these closing lines...
left a wonderful feeling.
Hugs~

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

Not that you were ever "bad", but my first thought here was ... you just keep getting better and better.  I need to learn how to do that.  Loved this...

Sadly,  nothing really changes all that much,
except the temperature, and even then,
it's either too hot or too cold.  Ha!

I wouldn't call this incomplete...
not at all.  I enjoyed this very much.
