A Woman’s Touch

It was almost too light ~
wraithlike
though all woman

her touch within was soft,
a child's sigh floating in
airs of possible

she was that touch
of promise

everlasting,

held in silk and sway

She
wore heels
of fulfillment,
her stride of capable,
compelling

and when you were in
her diamond brilliance

you could not help
but shine

what is it, to trace
the lines again

of she who brought you in

Motivated you
Officiated celebrations
Transformed dreams
Held on to empower
Enthused ecstatically
Routed you on your way…

Yes…her.

A Thanks, to a Mushy Muse, to bring this into being...

Élan darling girl I think this is utterly utterly spectacular. This a truly outstandingly fabulous poem. Such beautiful words, combined in perfection in your marvellous and utterly unique way. Truly perfect writing, and I love it, such a special poem as always written with your hearts touch. You really have a most marvellous way of spinning phrases into magic I love it utterly


Love and warm stuff

The truest of moment only mother
could know in beginning
all through the course
in the basis forever
contact defines
each unto the
moment when
becoming
became
thy Shared Immortal
