Lonely hands are talking

I watch her in the garden 

sunlight on her skin

strumming melodies on her guitar

touching cords within

her lonely hands are talking                                                             

as she runs them through her hair

she gives herself away each time

I am trying not to stare

her lonely hands are talking

brushing tears back from her face

her gleaming palms of loneliness

make my heart skip pace

the way she touches me

is never quite complete

she really doesn't know me

so our fingers never meet

she caresses me with poetry

with oceans in between

I see her in a kitten's purr

I see her in my dreams

Delightfully melancholy…. Emotions can cross as many miles as they need to reach their destination.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

some very different imagery in this..."i see her in a kitten's purr"

really like that line...needs a couple slight edits, but a beautiful poem...

it is that love from afar...the one we just never quite express to that person...we keep it inside...

nicely done.

Sweet lines...

[Corset]

I love it when men write poetry about women, the tenderness, gentile mannerisms, their fascination with her movements as she goes about her loneliness. it's really a simple, easy flowing write but it holds so much inside it. It's genuinely sweet, a gentleman's infatuation, really, quite lovely.
