I thought of you today….

When the wind blew you across my mind

And one night made everything alright

When daylight broke through the eye of the storm

And reminiscence brought a smile to my heart

 

I thought of you, love

When my eyes closed and there you stood

Under the moonlight in lucent glows

And if but for a moment, we were “us”

When everything about you floods my mind

And I can think of nothing else

Aside from the mystery in your eyes…

The passion in your touch

And the silence of your goodbyes

 

When dampened embraces vanish on the rise

When the sound of your voice lingers in my mind

When the scent of you propels me cliffside

And the warmth of your skin burns through sighs in the night

It is you, love that I think of….then

When the swell in my heart shifts to my eyes

Girl, this is stunning. This is... absolutely stunning. I was instantly pulled in and listened to every line, every word as you told the reader your thoughts. Really, I'm stunned. Such beautiful words and words that touch a spot in my heart that maybe you can only understand.

I love the ending - when the swell in my heart shifts to my eyes. It makes me want to cry.

Love,

One Word!

Superb!

A lot of affection for the man you love.

Really like these lines and what this says.

And I can think of nothing else
Aside from the mystery in your eyes�
The passion in your touch
And the silence of your goodbyes

This is amazing, so bitter sweet, your words bring such wonderment in places then bring the sting of pain... much like love can do when it goes wrong for reasons even we may not understand... you amaze me again with your skill in verse.

Wow,just beautiful. I love this poem.

[Emily B]

beautiful and stunning and touching. Don't we all wish somebody thought of us this way?

[Cardinal Robin]

Awesome...this poem is different from your signature fantasy/romantic write. In this case your voice is congruent with your art. IMHO that's why this poem is getting the response it does. It's not beauty trying to escape everything. It is more of a genuine reflection and appreciation of loving the moment.

Love, the moment,
the moment loves you
And not when, but NOW
yesterday knows naught
of what you should do
nor who you could be.

The past has filled your eyes with stars
and swelled your oceans tears with years
All in one fell swoop you have given birth
to strength from innumerable fears
And where it leads you to from when
will also swell your heart from Eyes of LOVE again
in every moment breathes your counting stars
NOW and evermore sweet Love, the universe is YOURS!

Yup, you sure can write 'em to get more out of us...your friends!

Just an amazing love poem that is full of passion and power. The way you see love is on a different beat than what anyone else sees it because no one writes like this but you. Fantastic write excellent flow as always and thank you for sharing.

As the heart ponders
a very gratifying piece

When the scent of you propels me cliffside

And the warmth of your skin burns through sighs in the night

great lines that have an impact

So profoundly beautiful... I do believe you must bleed poetry... Every phrase so perfectly captures emotions and memories, a touch, a voice... Absolutely amazing...
