Accidental touch of passing brush Created more than a doorway A portal Where slight of hand became unnerving Even when settled In long routine Quietly, I accept Eyes to mate Jolted in catch of breath You walked away with my mind trailing beaten pathways of aimless, meandering In and out of footfall’s memory Senses flickering notions of possibility If only...an hour’s freedom to breath across contented yeild Crushed in the midst of another doorway An entrance To deepest sanguine written on walls of illicit halls Locked behind perfect timing perfect caress of eyes slightly closed in pleasure By request. Thank You! |

 (big hugggssssss) Oh Regina, this poem reminded me of that Peter Gabriel song "In Your Eyes", where all your instincts return just by looking into a loved ones eyes. (sigh) This is sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, there is always love and comfort shining in eyes, and love they reflect set us free briefly in joy. (smiles) We all love you so much, sweet Regina, I love your wonderful words! (kiss on cheek) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

My, my .... a pleasure to see by your eyes. I tried to pick a favorite line but they all fit too well. I would have to agree with Sandra ... the last verse does have a special hold. Simply beautiful *s |

"Even when settled In long routine Quietly, I accept Eyes to mate Jolted in catch of breath" You've captured this electrifying moment beautifully Regina ... wonderfully vivid, very nicely penned! Best wishes, /Kit |

Regina, Dang, I wish I had more time to spend here. I do so enjoy your work when I find it. The eyes, indeed. If you don't find it there, then it probably isn't. Liked the imagination I found here: "Senses flickering notions of possibility If only...an hour’s freedom to breath across contented yield" e |
