Showing Me Love The first time I heard you laugh I know that sound would forever Be locked into my memory. When I saw that wonderful smile I knew I would see it in my dreams Bring dreams of love and happiness When I felt your hand’s gentle caress I knew that I’d never feel that way again Never feel so cherished and beautiful For it was not into my ear you whispered But into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul. Your love has claimed my very essence And showed me the joy of living once more Putting my shattered and disbelieving heart Back together piece by crumbled piece. So gently, so amazingly tenderly. Giving me more than I could ever dream of Showing me the mystery and myth of eternal love.

*sigh* how magnificent you make it all feel. Your heart has been touched and it is so clear that it is with a deep love that you have been healed. Wonderful. I love it. **hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Karen - Thank you my friend for stopping in.. Michael - As much as I would LOVE to take credit for that line... *sighs* I can't lol. It is a line from a Judy Garland song. They are lovely lines though aren't they? Poet deVine's challange : /pip/Forum7/HTML/000398.html "My heart is like an open book, for the whole world to read" |

I'de like to thank you for your warm welcome into the forum. This being the first poem I've ever read of yours I was impressed. I wish my poem could have sounded somewhat more like yours. Nice job. . Noelle |
