the ghost of love stood at my back beckoning beckoning, "fall into me..." i turned to accept him to embrace his warmth only a second too late and he vanished... leaving me in a lonely space where the cold rushed in slinking around my feet up my legs my back settling on the back of my neck-- how could i shake it... remembering now the ghost of love having whispered in my ear encircled me in near ecstacy i could feel love but it never touched me... i know you were there it could only have been you your soul having left you only momentarily to meet with mine... i wonder-- did our souls touch... -dgvarner 1-2-02 (a remembering.. ) ~dgvarner/fallen rain~ |

To answer the question, I would say yes, indeed, the souls touched... otherwise, would you have felt anything? Very good...thank you! |

souls that touch never part sweets. And souls are not constrained by time like us, a moment could be an eternity, so I imagine there was a lot of touching going on. I have a really good imagination, believe me. Oh, and I really loved this write. Parker |

"i could feel love but it never touched me..." I don't have the words to tell you how much this line DID touch me. Applause. |

I hope sopmeday you will be touched by love, and you will live a happy life, with a heart filled with love. Good write, I like the inclusion of the ghost! Randy Meador a life lived unexplored is a life not worth living. |

You've outdone yourself this time, sweet poet. This is great! "i know you were there it could only have been you your soul having left you only momentarily to meet with mine..." Wow. |

Oh I felt this, every word so deep inside. It applies to me, personally, I know this feeling and it is just not a very pleasant one. The poem is exquisite. |
