touch awakes
naive distaste
her touch returned
in ill-timed haste
ending all which
once was chaste

...I imagine

a younger woman's
sweet caress
touches me
with tenderness
my heart now hers
she does possess

...I fear

afraid to feel,
my heart restrains
a rushed emotion’s
sweet refrain
my love pours out
like falling rain

...I live

She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast".

The last line says it all, Ticklefingers . . . But leading up to that last line you have drawn into the touch, the caress; of love everlasting . . .

You are on a roll my friend! May you continue to roll...into your self and journey into the yet unexplored places in your head. ~L

All in good order....

The short lines are what explains the poem..
Clever write--enjoyed the read
