I choose you in the winter with cold white blankets on the earth and downy fir around your face I choose you in the spring when love awakens within my breast and your sweet lips caress my cheek I choose you in the summer lush when heat waves shimmer over me and your damp skin takes my breath away I choose you in the fall when the forest drouses and the fallen leaves call us to their deepening bed I choose to lie with you entwined to touch you with my lips, my hands, my mind as your eyes asked to be touched I choose all of these things because I am a man who ceases to be a man if he cannot choose you the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

This is a wonderfuly romantic poem, written so beautifully. The intertwining of the seasons, a lovely touch. ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

Pegasus~ This is softly romantic - I'm pleased that it got pulled back up. I like the thoughts that flow so gently. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

This one just got to me---a simple expression of soul and nothing less--and THAT is poetry. I hope some day, some one feels the same about me, and if it's not too much to ask, I also hope he could tell me so, this beautifully.... |
