The Twinkle In Your Eyes |

When I gaze eye to eye with you at night, The sound of love is not the pound of heart, It’s sighs so soft with tenderness so light, The flutter of lashes before we start. Loving look in the twinkle in your eyes, Captures my gaze in lost eternity, Says to me of love that words only tries, Having you here is all reality. The twinkle in your eyes is all the light, The sigh from your sweet lips is all the sound, How can I not remember this delight Of the passion and meaning I have found. Laying beside me in the deep of night, In the comfort of feeling not of sight. |

You're on a roll...I get the feeling that you might not have been writing up until this point, and have so much in you that wants to come out. This is a Good Place for you to be, here with Passions in Poetry... |

*sigh* what wonderful romance to start the day with. Your love flows with gentle tenderness that bathes the heart is a soft warm mist. *sigh* your poems make me feel romantic. Magnificent. **hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Lady in White, A nurse maybe? Seems I’ve been left with much time alone, and I find for now writing is a nice way to fill the void. It feels like a good place, and a friendly place. Startime, This was actually an ending of a day, but I think I know what you mean, being as you are reading this in your morning. A tender comes from the memory of the tenderness, and maybe the longing for it to be more often. Bill |

In the comfort of feeling not of sight. What a lovely way of putting it. Beautiful words, beautiful feelings. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Kay, I hardly felt it, could you get a little closer on that bump. This is just a figurative bump? You red-haired girls are so playful, and sweet too. Enchantress, You must be romantic yourself, because the say you have to be one to know one. I’ll take romance in any time. Mangus You are kind with your praise, I will try to write a few more. This place is an inspiration to the writer with so many fine examples about. Tracey, Sometimes I get lucky with my expression, but it always seems to not be enough. I always have a word or two more I want to say. Your words are a comfort to me in thinking I might have got it said right. James, Glad you did. Bill |

The twinkle in your eyes is all the light, The sigh from your sweet lips is all the sound ============= Ahh this is so beautiful. This must be just exactly what love is like. Good job, I look forward to reading more from you, I bet you have more where this came from. Go ahead, push your luck; find out how much love the world can hold |

Apachecat906, I have a few more of these hanging around, seems something pops up everytime I’m near a lovely lady, and special ladies even more so. I’m just trying to reflect some of the beauty Bill |
