Crossing Miles My fingers cross the miles of space To touch the softness of your face They stretch across a canyon’s breadth To stoke the contour of your chest There is a feeling in my lips A touch inside my fingertips There is a longing in my skin Projected from the depths within Though far beyond all touch and sight You fill the spaces of the night You are more real than realness seems And give me more than realness deems In perfect stillness of the night You let me hold you in my dreams Elizabeth Santos |

In the ever-most-humble opinion of this one unabashedly “incurable romantic”, I feel that this poem is as good as it ever gets! A most lovely ‘write’! [My tiny, tenuous ‘poetic voice’ is assuredly in the company of greatness on this fine website!] |
