Sweet Elation

Embraced in this moment, so perfect, so rare,
allowing myself this contentment, your gift to share.
Music plays softly, the sun is setting slow,
my body still tingling ... warmed by afterglow.
I can still hear you breathing, whispering my name ...
now that you've touched me like this, I'll never be the same.
For it is only in these moments, when lovers gently touch...
that elation and contentment, can be felt this much.
Wrap your body around me, put your lips on mine,
take me to the moment ... when hearts and souls entwine.

Janet Marie

**for my partner in rhyme, thank you for the inspiration, and content. *S*



 ...when you walked into the room, I saw their faces,
you made it feel like time was standing still...and I felt fascination...
then you turned and smiled in my direction...
and my heart...gave me away.

WOW, JM this is great. But a moment in time but such a wonderful moment, and wonderfully expressed.

I loved this Janet..especially the very first line..Embraced in this moment, so perfect, so rare.   I am trying to pull myself out of my past and live in the moment and enjoy every new moment.  Happy to see that you are experiencing some nice ones. James

Very nice... "Entwinement" is such a wonderful word to wrap into a poem, isn't it?..;*
