No Need to Ask

No Need to Ask

A Poem by Neva Flores Smith - Changefulstorm
"

I have felt the touch of your heart fleeing its way to safety............

"




























I have seen love embrace tears of a heart

 in winds of clarity,
waiting in the curve of a smile.  
It seems sweet lips
 serenade with songs breathing pleasure
 into tides
of the hardest miles.

I have known a rhyme to climb the mountains
 of idle hours reminding me
 I was born to create a dream.
 One that calls out
softly to you
 from the land of my heart’s
compassionate seams.

I have felt the touch of your heart fleeing
 its way to safety,
watching distance fade
 to a whispered mark.
When I pull it close my own flutters
 with no need to ask
 if you are my other part.

In favor of the brevity of all things spoken to be the measure of the depth and quality of the feeling expressed....I would say that the 3rd Stanza should be the only stanza on this piece..it rivals anything you have written in about the last month..and that is making a very bold statement...the choice of art work is masterfully chosen...please add this to my crazy review group Neva?..Laury

Sometimes when you read a poem, you see the beauty in the whole poem, but then there is just one line, one stanza that just stands out and really makes the poem what it is, beautiful. And that my friend is the third/last stanza.
Very well written and expressed

This is a poem about reaching out and asking for it, but you don't have to ask for it because love is free to give away.

I enjoyed the way that what was not there was just as important as what was. There is a special unseen force that holds these two spirits together.
