Invention the techie Atmospheric qualities of nature Singing to bare earth, Which fires posterior Smooth…. Relentlessly warm Realism bursts through the door Sending it off its hinges Finishing up with luminosity Poems singing religious A bold lover fears submission Struggling achieved textures Lending itself to melodies Where translation wanders Playing home music There I wonder stoking your smile outlining your eyes touch is so important Quit the narcotic Forgetting essentials Floating on a plain Where secrets whisper True hearts Inhaling presence Rose of patience Bohemian cruise Allowing light With fervor…adoration Drinks on the house calling us home Every curve of life Profits disappear in the moment Awakening from slumber Dropping self-image Whispering today I love you things Look at something good Unshakeable questions Carving names into a tree What purpose has a desperate man? Was luck with me? Stroking my finger like a wedding band If you should part, I know I shall die Like a lovesick fragile bird Wearing glasses on my eyes and then.....? |

Quit the narcotic Forgetting essentials Floating on a plain Where secrets whisper True hearts Inhaling presence Rose of patience ~*~ Each stanza, a poem of its own. Enjoyed, Lee! |

There I wonder stoking your smile outlining your eyes touch is so important ******** INDEED!!! Through eyes, communication, and feel all wrapped in one. Touch comes in many forms for me, but you verse better than I could possibly do. ********** Superb write as I am finding all of yours to be. Great reading and great intrigue in each and every one. Very observant of life you seem to be. |

I guess you can see that several of us tend to grasp onto the part of your poem about the importance of touch. It is, and you have brought that awareness to the surface of my mind. |
