By eye, to trace the long stem of pink crystal goblets Spectral colors tinge my tongue in wine remember chills Streams of feminine romantic play That trickles every nerve in slope and sway Soft spoken on the skin in trembled giggles Faintly moist and sweet of scent as whispered spills Rains of rose petals falling from a sudden smile Winked warm in flood upon the contract of a snowy winter night As the games of whipped cream tag and bubbles blown Into a soft spring wind floating to the breeze as tickled senses Pausing to savor just a touch in timeless drone A painting crisp upon the soul Softly spoken into candlelit shadows Leaned in close to share a joke or lend an ear The visiting of dreams once silent, still sacred And all too often looping over, caresses of the mind Blue satin ribbons slide through long and eager fingers The harvesting of every pleasure Rich in the texture of imaginations treasure Crept into your thoughtful sleep to glow Echo in my heart, but paused in stillness sing… Poised waiting suds like cream through satin Hand washed, warm… And slipped on wet they cling Copyright Kkh 6/17/03 [This message has been edited by ThisDiamond (06-18-2003 10:38 PM).] |

You have such a delicate touch with your words, TD. This is something I have not mastered...I am working on it. Verses like these help me to learn. Thank you. Patricia |

Smiling at Patricia's comment.....I don't think any of us will ever master the words as well as you, TD!! This poem gave me a lot of visions that were fun and tantalizing... Whipped cream tag? Surely you wouldn't? |

Rich in the texture of imaginations treasure Crept into your thoughtful sleep to glow Like a fine wine, your words of love are a vintage, meant to be savored, and truly, I can never get enough. Kathleen, I so enjoy the sensations you bring to mind. |
