It is that time
just before slumber
When my eyelids
become heavy
My breathing
becomes deep.
It is that time
I feel your hand
gently touch
the small of my back.
It is that time
our hearts together
beat evenly as one.
Sweet rest ~

Beautifully heartfelt and tender.  The passion in those lines is phenomenal.  It's a wonder what emotions one can convey in such a short amount of space.  Simply stated:  THAT ROCKED!!!!

It IS when there is
just that touch
that two are truly
united as
one...

Beautiful!

Annabelle is smiling!

And...I see that a duet is in the making!  Oh, happy eyes and heart!

I could sigh with appreciation of a beautiful poem... or sigh with envy. *S* Oh what the heck... I'll do both! *G*

I like this very much, sweet lady! *S*
