~*LOVE'S LAUGHTER*~


Your laughter,
full of love, hope and desire
echoes softly in my awakened ears,
setting my heart afire
with passion...
your carress,
sends chills over my aroused skin,
touching the very core of my soul
that once was so lonely,
filling the void - your love makes me whole,
for, your laughter sings in my heart,
a sensual, carefree whimsical melody of love,
giving this broken winged bird the strength to fly again,
soaring upon the wind of romance,
an intoxicating, rejuvenating bliss,
it inspires me
forevermore

this poem was just sheer beautiful.
i loved every stanza, each more beautiful
than the last. The above stanza that I
picked out is just lovely. You have an
exceptional way with words my friend.
Take care.

"I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing" -faster MSP

"And you see, I kind of shiver to conformity
Did you see, the way I cower to authority, you see
And my life, it's a series of compromises anyway
It's a sham, and I'm conditioned to accept it all, you see" six by Paul Draper.

Melissa,

Just beautiful...

"Your laughter,
full of love, hope and desire                echoes softly in my awakened ears,
setting my heart afire"

That is, in words, what I felt when I woke up and heard her downstairs laughing.
True love.

Thank you for that memory.

Trew.

When you care for someone you can really appreciate the joy of laughter and in my case I enjoy when my sweetheart looks into my eyes and when she holds me close and puts her legs over mine....I would call it Loves caress.   James
