Perhaps
a step or two behind
is where I felt the curve of you
tugging at me
like a small powerful boat
tossed by the sea

if I could steal a dreaming moment
shape it to curl over me stronger
than a passing wave
I would

I’d swim you
and feel the whirl of you behind it all

Listening to every heart

I'm not sure why
I feel a lump in my throat,
and I'm sure this wet
on my cheek is just the spray
from the sea...

my goodness, this touched me deep....

"I'd swim you"
just form that line alone there are amazing images... and looked at all the rest? wow!
brilliant lines me thinks.

Always, Alyssa

This is truly lovely, in thought and one I shall read many times, as it has such beautiful meaning....

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~
