Gently, winds caress in a wandering walk...or, was that my lips touching yours? Lingering, the shift of a curtains fall, holding close the sill as a stream of brilliance rises from the floor. Will you remain, will you grace my soul as I sleep in restlessness? Can my whisper lightly touch an ear? Can I, can we.... The waltz, drifting across a still pond, rippling the night air... Wanting to absorb the pomp as pageantry ploys...and perfection pauses...passionately. You know, yes...this I know and as each sun rises before the morning moon...I wake to the dampness of one lingering, delicately given, pause of a kiss....and I smile... Before a dream trembles the reed of water’s edge...once more. |

Sigh, dear Barry, you don't know how widely the ripples caused by the beauty of your words expanded within my heart. It's delicate, yet passionately romantic in the same moment. Love it! Love, Margherita |

How heavenly. Sorry, no criticism here. It was lovely...and truly romantic. You hold the kiss of a lover in your hand, my friend. I loved this poem. Yv-Goddess of Her Domain. Symbol of Truth Passion Pain. Let Her Smile Rain on the Hearts of the Innocent. |
