My smile, you say transforms the gray into hot sizzling sun brightening the dark areas of life that frighten some and cause others to give up in dispair... My eyes, you say endless & deep, can cause the most hardened of hearts to melt into dripping surrender longing to swim if only once more in their tender innocence and remember forever... My skin, you say with it's own tantalizing flowery, sultry fragrance beckons even butterflies onto a collision course with me just to attempt a sample, a taste of pure magic My touch, you say is the true force behind electricity's shock, rocking the souls of the unwary, taking them to delirious heights of passion My love, you say is all that you ever needed to survive in this crazy sphere of a world where the only thing certain is uncertainty, and your love for me... Dearest lover, how I do love the way you beg... -Tier {R.T.} 10/00 [This message has been edited by Tiersdin (edited 11-29-2000).] |

This is absolutely lovely, breathtaking, but I have to admit I thought the last line was going to say "the way you LOVE" but I loved it, so poetic. What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |

Irish Rose: You know, I'd actually toyed with that last line, but settled for tying in the title at the bottom. *smiles* you know how we poets are, you press send, then bite your nails! *chuckles* thanks for taking the time to read it, I truly appreciate it! SEA: Thank you so much! That's exactly what I was going for! *smiles* -Tier |

perhaps, not so much in begging, as in ... speaking the truth? Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Daniel JD: Thank you for reading. That's exactly what it is, a love beg... and a very tender one at that... jm12345: I'm glad that you were finally able to understand what I meant. *smiles* thanks for taking the time on it. Charisma: Thank you for reading and commenting. I think most poets love to see the word "excellent" in connection with their works. Janet Marie: Thanks for the indepth appraisal of my poem. I'm not very good at giving such, so therefore I appreciate it that much more when I recieve it. *smiles* -Tier |
