Come closer
I say to myself
when I see you on the veranda

The warm breeze allows the scent of you
to surf upon the voluptuous waves
invisible, but so very potent to my senses

I like how you stand
So sure of yourself
So strong in your back, poised idle

Still I wonder
if your walk, your stance, your romance
makes you aware
of how jealous
I am
of the very threads
against your skin

One button
only one
and you could be mine

But instead
I stand here
with one tie
holding everything together
and suddenly
you realize
I am watching
Waiting

for the perfect wind
to rise and meet
the nothing
in between me
and my wrap
now at the end of my fingertips
in a solid beacon of color
I welcome you home

(kiss on cheek) This is wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Oh good grief...here we go again....
WHY WOULD HE EVER LEAVE???  
gawwwd this is such a cool write...
talk about imagery  (woo hoo)
Ok....I'll stop (not) heh...
All teasing aside...I ADORE the adoration and admire in this...
I once wrote a line about being jealous of the cigarette in his mouth( oh man is that bad) ROFL.
Keeping this one...for my Reggie collection...filing it under S for steam my screen.
MORE PLEASE!!!!

... and I don't know why ...
Why should love come down and just sweep me away
I want to fly ... but there are so many things in my way.

It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo!

Hello Regina

And you wonder why I call you the Queen of Romance?  Your words speak for themselves as you graciously weave your magic across these pages of powder blue.  This was exquisite and so very much enjoyed.

Take care......Sue

"One button

Hehe, I love that thought!   
I felt myself eager to have him notice the longing right along with the narrator!

*hugs*

Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself.  
Thank you for having the courage to share yourself so that I can too

Okay I too created a "Reggie Steam Machine File", and did you ever tell who introduced you to this man who only has one button holding you back?  LOL, this was sizzling! Drop me a line - how's the yard going? No wonder it's taking you so long.   Can't pick out one line, they are all great!

Dear Regina, yet again a great write, to be watched as that, the beckoning of one body to another, through the gaze of an eye and the hunger of the imagination. Silent thoughts that might just turn to regret.
Welcome home indeed.

Much enjoyed

Sincerely Rick

...i'm jealous of HIM!

kind of like a warm feeling slowly settling across the entirety of your body - as if the sun were rising over the edge of some nearby hills and lighting gingerly up the length of your skin to settle firmly in your belly.

uhmm - *gulp* works as well.
