The breath of your words slide easily,
land softly, delicately upon ears that
yearn to hear, be caressed and stroked
gently, ever gently.

Each thought forming a wave’s peak as
the crest looms overhead, waiting to
heartily fall, drench and devour...till
my soul hungers again...

Leave not the goblet that I might quench
my thirst of you.  For it’s linger shall
sustain me, keep me there in want of
that which is you.

Though moons now set the eve and
stars caress the evening sky, my smile
dances, my breath halts and I count
each moment until you linger once
more...

Oh Barry...you know this is one huge *SIGH*

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
an invincible summer.

How eloquent the blush of this placed perfectly in rhythm with the waves.
Love this one.

WOW!!! Passion flows eloquently from your fingers as you caress the keyboard with words that set a fire in the hearts and on blue pages where these hearts reside...Your talent to leave this reader breathless and sighing amazes me...Well done, dear friend...*hugs*
