Loving You Certain that the day’s travels Had drained our wells of strength, Content to lay curled head upon chest, leg flung across waist And in the laying there Allowing awareness of air softly stirring With subtle variation, Dust particles reversing direction In three quarter time with the arrhythmic beat emanating from within, hum from the ceiling fan slowing as lips grow possessive a sense of soaring, dreamily, details lost in the abstract, each yielding with the intent to mirror as closely as possible the essence of the other. © 2000 Corinne Bailey |

Funny how we find energy for some things when we think we were exhausted....lol Lovely Poem. Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Corinne, absolutely beautiful poem. veru sensual. "Beyond all this good is the terror,The grip of a mercenary hand,When savagery turns all good reason, There's no turning back, no last stand,"I.Curtis |

Yes, Prometheus, finding an inner strength. Wilfred, thank you so much, wasn't sure I could pull this one off, that words would fail to convey the emotions. Sunny1, thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you, too Brian! Corinne |

What a wonderful picture this paints... rest, a sense of accomplishment and completion and most of all, that time spent being close to someone very special. Very good indeed Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer. |

Corinne, this is so loving and softly sensual.. hum from the ceiling fan slowing as lips grow possessive I love the image from those two lines. Thanks for the little peak into your living room. Parker |
