My Robber Baron

You stole my shy glance,
tucking it behind your wink;

you thought it would be
enough.

Time traveled.

You stole my caress
by listening to whispers

which warm you well in
shadows.

Moments measured.

You stole my laughter
by giving sanity to mirth;

perceiving its song in your
ears.

Instants trek.

Then, all things carefully
considered,

you stole
a kiss,

embracing my keep in your
hands.

I sentence you, to my life.

Ah Soleil, yes, it usually starts with a wink, then a very slight touch, glances and whispers and then....ooooh then...the stolen kiss.

Yes, I know...I have been there too.

Lovely this...lovely you.
You have been missed..please stay longer..
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~

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

I sentence you, to my life.

I just love that last line and I love the whole poem too.

Excellent Soleil

Hello, my friend.  I've missed you!

"embracing my keep in your
hands.

I sentence you, to my life."

What a fabulous ending!

No words could be more charming than these.  So very suggestive yet guarded.  Well done!  KJ
