the sight of you sends me reeling
pungent and strong
like muddled rosemary

there is this quirky thing
when you read,
your lips move
just
slightly
as if the words deserve more
than mere process of thought

impish me
wishes
unseen, could hover
just
so
feeling the whisp
of each staccato
on lips as if mine own

you pluck my emotions
like fielded wildflowers
lilac and clover
acacia blossom and ambrosia

there are roses everywhere
and my love grows

Well, I don't make it in here as often as I should...but when I do, I get such wonderful treats!

This was beautiful Nicole!

my goodness this is sheer delight for the senses...makes me want to print it out ...
then make it into confetti and burn it in my candle..inhaling it would make me giddy

What a lovely declaration of heart poetess Nic...love your vocab and imagery.

You're going to hear my voice in the morning calling your name ...
and know my love and my desperation were one and the same.
