with you

my mind found you
there, just random
a thought of something
I thought I forgot

and I lingered there with you
in the laughter
the electricity
of your scent

remembering
how the butterflies
flew
in the presence,
of you

and how I wondered
if you could tell
how lost to you
I truly was.

The absentminded smile,
some might think
means that I am still
lost

~they might
be right

I enjoyed the style of this poem. Looking forward to reading more from you.

"The absentminded smile,
some might think
means that I am still
lost

~they might
be right"

That's what I was talking about when I referred to style.

Love it... I think many people could identify with this. My favourite part was "in the laughter
the electricity
of your scent"

it's okay to be lost, makes it all the more fun

I do love your free verse and graphics

I don't know many people who have the talent for it

Yes, I do particularly like this.  How true it is of most of us.

Hi, Susan!

"remembering
how the butterflies
flew
in the presence,
of you"

That is soooo you! ~ and that's a GOOD thang!

I enjoy your relaxed, easy-going style of writing. You pull your readers into your world.

I could have sworn that I said how much I liked this.  I guess I didn't .. but I liked it when I thought I had written that and I like it more now that I am sure to write that. Get that?  I like this lots.

i love random

random is good

i have to say though... thiking of the smell of electricity might not be the exact ambience you were going for.

love to read you, you always make me happy to have taken the time.
