“REACHING OUT”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
At times I climb a mountain,
the highest one I can find…
I see your image in the sky,
long to touch you, I’m inclined…

Feel breezes cool on my face,
nearer to the crest, I’m there…
Eyes closed in succulent harmony,
submission, into the thin air…

Pillows caress me, mist engulfs,
sun warm through the clouds…
Slowly I’m held in your arms,
high, alone, above the crowds…

My body no longer with chill,
lips of yours, mine that complies…
Magic of a women’s soft touch,
I reach out, with tender sighs…

Bill~
This is so soft and tender.
One can't help but respond with 'sighs'.
Truly beautiful, my friend.
Hugs,

Bill,
Just need for you to know I still think of you and enjoy your writing. Seems there are some mighty redwoods that the wind is blowing through in this poem. I love your style. Thanks.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Thank you Larry C for bumping this up to view once more!  It was posted before I started at PIP and I hadn't read it.

BC--wherever you are! I miss your wonderful words of love and nature! Hurry back.

A nice place to be. Very tenderly written, Bill.

So sweet and tender simply wooing the shattered of hearts, knowing that love does exist..loved this..
