And are we so different
than the wind -

Seeking pleasure in the
sweep of a caress?

~
There are times when I am no
more than the breath across
your body.

And with fingers spread wide to
receive...

You offer me your distance.

In this moment...I am the
wind.

And you the hallowed ground
beneath me.

Eric,

  Just these lines would have perfection, yet you added more wonderful lines:

  And are we so different
  than the wind -

  Seeking pleasure in the
  sweep of a caress?

I also enjoy your writing so much!

WOW Ericc such the breeze that becomes the wind....nice!

And so it those we live with
and should know who elude us
But we can still love them
we can love completely
without complete understanding
