Why This Distance? |

 there really is no reason for this separation; all I’ve ever required is in your breathing... every word you say brings me the lightest elation; I’ve found being close to you is all I’m needing... the mountains always keep their distance, but remain close enough for our viewing... the dance of the stars provides the mood for romance, the simple touch of your hand will cause my undoing... so, why aren’t we together in this wondrous setting? the serene waves of the sea lure us close to love... my precious one, the empty space beside me is quite unsettling-- being here without you is simply unheard of... take me away to where you are right now; I can’t be without the comfort of your air... this day, I am ready to give my heart with a vow because another night of this distance I surely cannot bear. -kh 04/21/01 to be with you... |

Snowpants - lovely poem from the heart, lovely mountains from so far to cross. Why, I wonder, does the best have to always seem to be so far. BC |

Lovely poem. But some things are much better viewed from afar. That snow on the mountain may be all dark and grey, seen close up. Joyce |

It is hard when we can't be with the ones we love...I felt the sorrow in this one, it is beautiful and so is the picture. Kathleen Blake |

When I asked that question, the answer was because the need is one-sided... definitely not the answer I wanted! *S* Great poem... I enjoyed it very much! |

The simple touch of your hand will be my undoing... Relate much to the distance and desperation in this. Enjoyed! Speak when you are angry--and you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret...Laurence J. Peter |
