A Simple Touch

He gives to me all his words
For him a simple touch.
They wrap me tender, every breath
No hesitation, much.

To tempt me when I'm on the edge
To savor him my view
He sways me when I walk his mind
A simple pleasure, too.

He feeds me with his eyes of heart
And guides me to the light.
Removes the darkness from my life
Caresses me come night.

Drives my world of fantasy
My pillow soft, to hold.
Makes tears of sad turn happy with
A simple phrase, he's told.

He is beyond my realm of reach
Yet flows with me each day.
With every simple touch of him
I pause, I smile, I sway.

To music soft, his tune of dance
His walk of avenue.
Slowly thoughts of simple touch
Come kiss my world of you.

~~~~~~Wynter


Lady In White, thank you for reminding me of the softness of touch:

by words alone...
your touch was felt
gently in my heart
softly in my mind
peacefully in my soul
whispers bringing to me joy...


"The worst prison would be a closed heart".
...Pope John Paul II

Thank you Sunshine, sometimes the other poets here, bring to my mind thoughts I have either written before but never posted or a combination added to something I have been thinking about. Her poem below reminded me of how much the touch of caring can mean to someone and how it can brighten their day Thank you again for placing it in your library.

Wynter...this is lovely...if I have read this correctly, all we have done is share mutual thoughts to touch others...and isn't that what poetry is all about...

please feel free to use any of my words to mingle with yours in the future...perhaps some day we shall collaborate on a piece together...

thank you for this gift...

Very tender loving!

A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.

You write with such a fresh sincerity, Maureen.

"feeds me with his eyes of heart"

What a wonderful phrase and insight.

Well done.
