...Written long ago and posting as an opposite to "When A Woman Loves" by A Whisper's Caress... When A Man Loves When a man loves, you can see it in her eyes, softly glistening, starry skies, loving all at which she looks; hear it in her breathy sighs, when she thinks of him; feel the fiery heat of silky skin, where her hand touches your arm, know it in the way she walks, talks, laughs, and when she thinks no one can see, smiles that inner smile meant just for him. When a man loves, his woman glows, a fiery, golden, pulsing light, softly tempered when new life conceives. w. james beard, jr. [This message has been edited by jwesley (edited 11-27-2000).] |

What an intriguing perspective...recognizing a man's love through the eyes and actions of his woman. Very excellent work, sir  |

When a man loves, you can see it in her eyes, softly glistening, starry skies, loving all at which she looks; hear it in her breathy sighs, when she thinks of him; feel the fiery heat of silky skin, where her hand touches your arm, know it in the way she walks, talks, laughs, and when she thinks no one can see, ================= JW this is sooooo romantic and lovely... and you have captured well the inner contentment felt when we know we are loved. wonderful writing in this sincere piece. jm Sprayed across my heart and hers Danced butterflies in the wild This angel, this woman , who loves me with the innocence of a child. ~DeVante~ |

Thank you all my friends, love IS! And all else tags along. And AWC, never even thought about this until I read WHEN A WOMAN LOVES, and then I said, wow, a marriage in the making! Thanks. jwesley |

This is the kind of love poem I needed to perk up this dreary November Tuesday. I love how this one flows. I agree with ladycat, it would fit in well at Digital Passions. Keep up the great work!

Ladycat & Lovebug...I am humbled that you would want it and am honored by all the wonderful comments on it as I've never considered it one of my better ones. Thank you for asking. Yes, you may. jwesley [This message has been edited by jwesley (edited 11-28-2000).] |
