I loved her
the way rain
seemed to turn a tide
when april came
and our hands were enamored
with the softness of each others fingers

We met at laurel canyon
where the road hitched
up to the top of the land
where sand gave a kiss
to the bottom of the well

The sun shaped its figure that day for us
as a thread of hair quickly became a bouquet
lavished upon my lap

One lie tied between two secrets
became a love learned that day
a quiet neck, on my right breast

Ah, Tomer...not what I expected by the
title, but beautiful in its own right.

Good job!

This is absolutely beautiful. I am in love with the opening stanza. "A quiet neck" ... very nice.
