Tell me those tales, while I close my eyes and lay my head on the softness of your voice as it recounts the days of wandering as we were then On sand that drew a dance Of lines across rising dune That in point of east Told us even the lowly grain Was drawn to divine. If I open my eyes as you speak It is to watch the rise and fall Of your chest as you breathe Knowing, that our air is mixed And mingled as we have been On robes or blankets Under vast expanded sky Lit only by the spark of star And those of ours I would pillow you On the silk of my thoughts As I sleep And watch you awake That the tender curves And gentle traces would not Be forgotten As long as I have life And there are Desert rains Please, tell me again [This message has been edited by Cpat Hair (06-11-2003 03:56 PM).] |

OK, I have virtually melted in front of the computer. I got this man in my life who needs to read your words...to see how it is done. He needs to learn by example...no better example than this beautiful verse. Patricia |

STOP IT! I really, really do have some WORK to do this afternoon! But it can wait another day or three. this is superbly written. This whole series cries to be bound in gold, or love dust...it doesn't matter how you wrap it or unwrap it. |

'I would pillow you On the silk of my thoughts As I sleep And watch you awake That the tender curves And gentle traces would not Be forgotten As long as I have life And there are Desert rains' I have willed myself this very thing, many times. Though now, I truly remember very few. But those few... |
