For Him She came to him, there, and entered deep his soul and felt now he, awash, as if upon a craggy shoal she swept words to his heart, as if they had been tethered there, forever, shall she be, until the end of never she breathed breath into his heart, where she lightly stroked a chord, a spell, a place not met, but where he stoked the flame of her in his voice, and again then in his rhyme to promise between the two of them, yes, there’ll be the time where they shall meet and gaze and whisper, a kiss upon her ear and he shall know just how to sweep her up in midnight’s clear and lay her upon the rose-strewn bed, a bower made for her and she shall shower him anew, he has never been so sure. She came to him, there, and entered deep his soul She breathed breath into his heart, where she lightly stroked And they shall meet and gaze and whisper, a kiss upon her ear And she will hold his heart so soft, and whisper to him, “dear”. Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?...KRJ |

Karilea (aka Erin Brocavich) Mmmmm - this is so loving - so warm - so heartfelt - Exactly as I imagine truly great love shared to be. ~You have to have a dream so you can get up in the morning. ~ Billy Wilder |

Well now this in definitely one heck of a romantic piece. I have read this at least 4 times and I am sure I will read it again. I must say that you have penned quite the essence of hopeless romantics in the heart. I am in awe at it's beauty and YES please do write like this again. I like this side of you. |

Kari, I still think this is one of your best, although it's hard to pick, an excellant, from a stunning. This is so totally beautiful, I really think that this is my favourite. (well that is at this moment) Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Marsha, you're too good for me... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

I am astounded that I missed this one! Karilea, this is incredible romantic writing filled with love, longing and promise. If anyone could breathe breath into a man's heart, I'm sure you could...and, yes, there is always a right time for true love. This is beautiful... If you whisper, I will listen.... |

Our song is the voice of desire, that haunts our dreams, A throe of the heart, Whose pining visions dim, forbidden hopes profound, No dying cadence, nor long sigh can sound, For all our art. ===================== How did I miss this? What they all said, above, times 10! Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |
