~~~soft words~~~ what we need to hear is the soft of our conversation words sprung from yesterday's romance giving back that velvet glance and taking this, that one-more-chance because we can although we've taken a stand apart we still speak from the heart although not as lovely as once before bitter sometimes guards the door but I need to hear that conversation soft oft as once it came from your lips and spread like a silken cloth around these hips that once were more slender, true but that which still belongs to you as you say you belong to me and I wonder if I want you, see? just as you then wonder of me… so can we store the angry words let them go away, unheard? and take this hour, take it longer to see if there is still the hunger of what once was in passion's kiss to see if it is something to miss and find out if there lies aloft a message from a conversation soft… Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

The reality of this piece touched me deeply. Love over time is the most wonderful of all. Excellent writing here. Your emotions come across very well. To capture and live a moment is truly living |

Soft words lead to sweetness; as sweet as what you've written here Pepper "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth." Percy Bysshe Shelley |

such a beautiful plea, Sunshine, from a woman who cares. Nothing is sadder than when soft words turn harsh....softness is vital. |

Kari...if I said beautiful, it'd not be enough. This is a soul toucher, one that nestles down deep and speaks the truths many try not to see, the inevitable, that comes as time walks by being denied by mind and eye... but truth nevertheless, as look in the mirror will tell. This is when love is tested and and should hold strong. This is also when real stupidy hits some of us and we do/say stupid things and lose in the end. That is if anything I just said makes any sense. well written my friend jwesley |

Marsha, what a special place to be...your library...thank you... Thank you Jon... Sven, I'm SUCH a nag... James, that is one of the loveliest compliments, that to touch a soul renders the best in all poets...you among them...I am finally beginning to know to take written words from my treasured chest and attempting to pour them forth...so know, Sir, that what you said is so right...as you have always been...thank you... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
