The Rib of Him

The Rib of Him

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers


The Rib of Him



 

And I long for him,

to be adjacent to the rib of him

just below the heart of him…

to feel the madness of the world dissipate within       
the circumference of his arms,

to hear the symmetry of his breathing with mine

                        so sweetly with mine,

as the orchestration of our hearts beat

like the hoofs of a thousand steeds

pulsing,

converging,

never- ending.

you are amazing....i felt the fusion of the heart and soul in this one...being attached to the rib...the knowledge of love that wants to be one with another.
