“THINGS THAT YOU DO” by Bill Charles ~~~~ As I lie here alone, with thoughts about you, and all of the things, to me that you do… I wonder about your kindness, and who you are, if from heaven you were sent, or perhaps a star… My eyes see your smile, radiant with beauty, warm like the summer sun, in all of its glory… Similar to a rose petal, as it sheds its dew, as it opens in the morning, smiling like you… When I touch the silkiness, of your velvet hair, with my fingertips so gently, and with tender care… Things happen to me, deep down inside, like a newborn child, seeing for the first time… Each and every kiss, my breath is lost, for I didn’t expect lips, that were so soft… When they touched mine, a spark was ignited, I never want them to leave, only to stay united… When we touched, I never again felt the same, for we became lovers, sharing all of this flame… And deep in my heart, I knew there was a way, that we would always be together, forever and a day… So as you can see, my thoughts are where they lie, within a prayer, of never saying goodbye… Visions in my mind, these thoughts about you, and they tell me everything about, all the “Things That You Do”… ~~~~ |

Those "Little Things" that make us who we are... Smiles.. Mischievous grins... Miss Behavin' ways... Make it all worth while, indeed... This is lovely, BCI....  |

Bill, It is sooooo good to see you back! I thought of you just the other day, wondering where you were . I've missed your writing. No one's poetry can make me swoon like yours do, and this poem certainly does. ~hugs~~~Tara aka rp25 :o) |

Evening rosepetals25, A'hhhh, and it is so good to see you at my humble place once again. Hope things have been well with you. Actually, I have been on vacation for a month and spent it on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Really didn't want to come back, it was just great. Thank you for missing my writings, and the feelings of swooning. It does make me feel very good to read your words of praise. Thank you much, and I'm glad that you came by. |
