~LAUGHTER'S WINGS~ Soft voices in the distance whisper "let souls be as one"..."let hearts unite," and for one magical night, we are together as it was meant to be, our love gathers the winds as emotions fly us through the air on magic carpets woven with laughter, joy and care, we leave behind pain, loneliness and confusion as the world around us disapears for a moment's time We caress under the moonlight whils't stars burn with intensity shining in your eyes as you look deep into mine - their sparkling reflections of pure love lasting touches the depths of all that I am experiencing the wonder of the wind's breath of freedom We fly past crashing waves of crystal blue entranced by it's thunderous applause for the eternal love found within me and you, your laughter echoes through time and space returning to sing lullabies in my ears, your breath upon my face sends my spirit into reveries, your lips touch mine - seduced by the sweet taste of your kiss, there, we soar intoxicated within the dance of passion's bliss, the wind blows through my hair as your fingers gently graze my skin sending rushes and chills through my soul, oh enraptured am I of you captivated by a knight forever true, we fly through night and into the morn, as our love carries us away to the very ends of the day to watch the beauty of the sunset's colours make love amidst the horizon as we glide on laughter's wings *By Melissa Honeybee* < !signature--> The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 09-07-2000).] |

Love wrapped in sensuality. Very beautiful in imagery and content. Loved the flow and the way it captures the reader. |
