There is only this touch. It's how we see... As our eyes reach in a slow caress of light...reflected by the fullness of our desire. We hear... With the gentle stroke of whispers falling soft across the ears. We inhale the fragrance of the world in a long embrace of pleasure. We taste... With a subtle understanding of all that passes through the lips. It's how we touch. As if we are the fingers of the soul...and heaven waits beneath the senses. There is only this touch... And all we ever need to do...is reach. |

I don't tell you often enough, but you do write such loveliness. Always haunting sensuality apparent in your words.  |

I can close my eyes and feel him through every word.. definate grounds for keeping. thank you. If I were to touch you, would you bleed a velvet river, running miracles through the sodden ground? --Moi |

Dear Maureen, Reaching is indeed simple...and yet we are steeped in the fear of surface reaching. There is no time when we do not reach....and there is no time when we are not caressed by the reach of unseen hands. Reach...even as the clench of fear urges you to withdraw your arms...what we reach for always reaches back. We only have to look deeper to see that it is not form that we are reaching for...it is something more. The reach itself is enough. Love, Eric |

You "inhale the fragrance of the world in a long embrace of pleasure ...." .... and do you realize, Divine Poet, what great pleasure it is to inhale YOUR fragrance through your words revealing the depth of life and touching the spheres of beyond? I love you. Margherita  |

Oh, yes. *S* And when you do, the laws of physics are defied... for distance ceases to exist. *S* Beautiful work! |

Ericc There is always such simple truth in your words...it's like reading something that I've always known, but couldn't say quite right. Thank you. |
