Under the Skies of You

You are all I need,
when you look at me,  I am invincible.  
Hold me closer,
no need to chase,
more than once you have loved me
under the skies of yourself.

A mere whim would never
change my mind
but you wake me up
when your face
searches for release
in my eyes.

You are to the whole of my being
every moment I place
as precious
with the ink of my pen.  

I cannot let a single day go by
without touching the sands
we call ours
when they appear on the shores
of every part of me.  

You are all I need,
when you look at me, I am invincible.  
Hold me closer, your arms whisper
the rhythm of me.  

No need to chase, come and hold me
under the skies of yourself.
I want to linger here
Enclosed
in the love we make.

So sublte, beautiful and enchanting. Speaks of the passion shared by two people and how it makes them feel content, secure and whole.
Wonderful poem. And an equally splendid picture which speaks volumes more about the solitary woman walking down the beach.
A pleasure to read. :)

[Kenneth The Poet]

Very passionate, maybe your most passionate piece. Lovely for sure.

Neva you are such a beautiful soul.............you deserve this kind of love again. I hope it finds you soon. You are already whole in your self-worth, but I hope your soul finds comfort knowing that you are already loved by so many!

Whoa Neva,
This is some of the most romantic work you've ever written.
IT made me all warm and tingly inside.

This is so beautiful, I hate to keep repeating myself but my gosh Neva I just cant help it, I love the way you write, so soft, sensual, romantic, sublte and yes I agree some are so enchanting. You are such a passionate writer. Always a pleasure to read what you have written.

Beautiful!

A winding wound you use to cut with your pen, or keyboard, you see beauty in almost all, even the divine chaos, well done, great piece.

[Sleepless]

aaaaaw!!!:) i truly missed reading your poems as always beautiful :)

[Jibey]

Lovely picture, so beautifully embellished by your words... The repetition helps to emphasise the emotional ambience throughout, and the bare feet on the sand, the whispered sensations all create a wonderful celebration of love.
