Within me poised a flee of too demonstrative techniques The flattery of fingertips is not what my soul seeks Admittedly in every thought your hands are carved in trust For that is truly the desire that waits beneath the crust The thought of pure exchanges that enliven inner sounds Across the miles forever where in truth are set no bounds Massages in a fragrant oil drooped straps to bare contours That drives away the knotted fears in raptures tears it pours And ache in separations as a magnet pulls you close Some primal flow directing what my body somehow knows My arms to know the sequence of your breaths held soft within Without a conscious word but just familiar on my skin And anguish that has spoken from the words that leave your lips Send signal all along my hands into my fingertips That touch is universal in its language and response Revealing what the spoken word might smudge in tongue-tied knots To question would be futile, for I’ve heard and felt the scheme Where I live on intuition and my only truth this dream To be with you each tomorrow, never leaving any doubt That you course my very blood and leave but love to run throughout Copyright Kkh 6/13/04 |

What a beautiful poem for someone so incredibly lucky. Your passion flows freely in this poem and evokes feelings for the one I love. It is quite touching and has left its mark on me. Thank you for sharing such an impassioned masterpiece. It shines like a Diamond. BTW, thanks for the kind reply to my recent post. Your words very thoughtful and kind, and also left their mark on me there, too. Your poetic friend, Kevin |

Admittedly in every thought your hands are carved in trust For that is truly the desire that waits beneath the crust The thought of pure exchanges that enliven inner sounds Across the miles forever where in truth are set no bounds Massages in a fragrant oil drooped straps to bare contours That drives away the knotted fears in raptures tears it pours TD, I could have copied every word of this! Everytime I think you've written the greatest possible, then you go one step beyond! Exquisite writing, TD! |

"To question would be futile, for I’ve heard and felt the scheme Where I live on intuition and my only truth this dream To be with you each tomorrow, never leaving any doubt That you course my very blood and leave but love to run throughout" So exquisite...so beautiful..so much your lovely style. ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~Somewhere in my heart I'm always |
