My Fingertips Find Your Picture

My Fingertips Find Your Picture

A Poem by Neva Flores Smith - Changefulstorm
"

my fingertips find your picture, caress your lips......

"


















I caressed your face in a picture of you
with fingertips wanting to know
how the light fills your eyes.
Immediately my fascination turned
into a rushing drive
held perfectly in the middle
of where your heart touches the warmth
of all my memories.

These thoughts alone gather
to capture the moon,
can you not see me wrapped
in continuous seasons
when I walk under the same sky
above where you sit?
My mind wanders and I close my eyes,
wishing you were here,
my fingertips find your picture,
caress your lips.

Many of you are aware that I am a widow, this particular piece is not about my husband who has passed but merely about looking at a picture and missing someone who sits under the same sky that you do.

this is so dreamy could hardly fathom the depth...
i ran my fingers to your face ,wondered what strength fell over it
what does it hide underneath,was always surprised,wish you told me
what strength you gathered beneath,how you managed to collect
how you reflect to me,my thoughts all taken by you
how happy am i just knowing that i walk beneath the same sky like you
its the same world i live how i liked to touch ..face and lips
lovely write..

This really hit home for me. I was looking at old family photos just yesterday. Seeing friends and loved ones that have since passed. Life...how we do take it for granted! This was beautiful.

This brought tears to my eyes. It just glows with love and tenderness. I can only imagine the feeling of losing my husband. I'm sorry for your loss.

The poem is beautiful and sad. I like the thoughts and memories in the poem. A photograph can bring back a memory and a kind face. The complete poem was amazing. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poem.
