Your Hands

Sighs of great bliss emanate from all of my senses
At the very sight of your hands
Sweet murmurs of memories evoked in a passion
Mesmerizing in haunting command

I am quieted of motion, stopped in existent time
Thrilled to my core of being
With memories of spaces and faraway places
Your hands take my spirit a fleeing

Strength emits from the coursing of lifeblood
Pulsing within your clasp
Holding my heart in suspended anticipation
Inviting the fire of your grasp

My attention is gravitated by the fire in your eyes
A flame, perhaps I could withstand
If not for the murmurs of sweet memories evoked
When my eyes are caressing your hands

Author's Note

The poem that goes along with the cover of my book, Hand Of the Muse.......this one is very special to me.

Beautifully written. Your language is amazing. So descriptive, sensual, smooth, with a flow as fluid, and as natural as water.

I feel like I can learn a million different things from this poem.

[Poetic Beauty]

It is amazing just what hands can do. The imagery is delicately sensual and the thoughts are beautiful.

Beautiful poem. How calm and deep this love is. How wonderfully you allow us to feel that along with you. As always, you speak to my heart.

Beautiful poem. Very deep and transcending. I particularly like the way you have 'confused' senses to evoke emotion. Very inspiring (to make me wanna write)
