Wash of beautyA Poem by Cheryl J. TurnerHe was a lonely man and never without pain a lone tear would escape as he burned in the fires again He wandered far and wide He swam with sharks through great oceans He dabbled with demons along vast deserts He was searching for the answers to questions that he lacked Then we did meet With one touch his pain does flee Just for a moment when he is with me I see his eyes close I hear his heart beat A peace he's never known a wash of beauty She was a lonely woman and never without pain a lone tear does escape as she burns in the fires again She did not wander She lay in defeat 'til along came her saviour She heard his heart beat Just one touch and pain subsides He watches her eyes close A peace she's never known A wash of beauty From his touch alone © 2010 Cheryl J.
