Tonight

~ a romantic scribble ~

Tonight…

I’m wrapped in bittersweet nostalgia

searching for words to describe

your sleepy kisses

                                                 on quiet nights

when starlight was the only witness to breathless promises

whispered as tenderly as your touch…

                                            silk to my skin

                                                 warming soft curves

                                  uncovering emotions

I could only dream of capturing

with amethyst skies

                                and silver stars

                                                 and poetic words beating to the sound of my heart

 

So tonight…

as the stars breathe goodnight kisses from a wistful sky

I’ll surrender to dreams of your touch

                                 on quiet nights

                 and forget everything else…

                                                           but you

I dont know how I missed this one Julie. I loved immediately the bubbles filled image - its so playful and sensual, and the way it set the scene.
I see how well you use formatting Julie - this is a masterclass - the way the reader is carried - gently to the next word - the next line. Letting each word settle like a snowflake.
Straight into my library this gorgeous write goes -

This is simply amazing. I can't get over how incredible your writing is!! My favorite line is "as the stars breathe goodnight kisses from a wistful sky", it adds personification. You have pure talent!

Oh my goodness Julie. Your poems are such treats for me to read. This poem has such a tenderness to the diction, and reading it out loud, you can really appreciate the way the poem flows from word to word, image to image. Amazing1

I love how you select your words! "... breathless promises/ whispered as tenderly as your touch…" and "silk to my skin " really appeal to the senses! With "amethyst skies" you conjure a beautiful image. These are just a few things I love in this poem. Thank you for sharing :)

Julie, Well this one is right in your wheelhouse. Nobody on WC does romance writing even close to being as great as you always do. No matter how bad a day I have I can always count on your read request to help take my cares away and breathe a sigh. Thank you for that! take care...dan
